I have turned off all exits after worried ISP was forwarding too many abuse notices. This is pending a solution which, if possible would send all exiting port data off to a local anonymous proxy or VPN server.
Anonymous proxies and VPN servers seem more impervious or tolerant to abuse notices than the ISPs.
A mod I would like to see is to have a facility to send the all the data on ports that are set to exit off to an external anonymous proxy server; https and/or socks. Currently the httpproxy command in torrc does not do that.
I have tried to get my VPS, which has a second IP, to connect to a VPN server on that second IP for Tor to use for exit. This is beyond my networking skills and attempts cuts off the branch I am sitting on, with mucked up routing for everything.
Anonymous VPNs and http proxies I have used are very cheap with no data caps and very fast.

I do not think they will kick you or change policy now, I am just out of luck with one of my exit nodes. Lots and lots of script kiddies trying to hack banks and other websites over my exit node ... I have no clue why one exit node attract them and others dont ... bad luck perhaps ...

Oh dear, I'll take this as a warning since I just spun up a Tor droplet with DO not too long ago.

Hi there,
now I am getting abuse mails nearly every day and digital ocean looks like getting pissed off. Is it technical possible to switch between exit and guard so I only run an exit for 14 days a months (less abuse mails per month if it is a exit only 14 days). Or is this a really bad idea?

PS: I am also getting my first bullet proof exit note tomorrow ... lets see how this works out ... _______________________________________________ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays
