I have been running an exit (mythaicontribution) in Thailand for 3 Years (the exit has narrow port 80 range but full 443 and all other less risky ports open. It has never been that busy as an exit, unlike my other UK and USA exits of similar profile. I noticed it was off line last week. The ISP was slow to work out what was going on, to discover that the upstream ISP has blocked the IP “due to DOS attack” I think that is unlikely for such a long block, and assume the hand of MICT. I gather the do not give reasons. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_censorship_in_Thailand)%C2%A0In some ways surprising it took them so long. Is there a way on Tor’s web pages and data base to look at historical data. I am curious to know when it off line and removed from Tor metrics. Gerry

I use https://siam.digital
I am paying 648 BHT a month $21. They do not have IPv6
There may be cheaper ISPs out there now but as this firm seems to ignore the fact it is a Tor exit, and I avoid embarrassing them by pointing it out. They kindly changed my blocked IP, and the exit is up and running again, even using the same domain name. I wonder how long before blocked. It took a few years before.
