Hi blazingvpn tor relay operator,
thanks for adding 4 more tor relays to the network!
Please do not forget to set the MyFamily parameter in your torrc configuration to tell clients your relays belong to a single operator.
If you need help with the MyFamily option let us know.
thanks, nusenu

Hi nusenu,
thank you for your daily work about "MyFamily".
Could you explain please why names like torworld.org, torservers.net, online de, etc. are not aggregated in one position on https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ornetstats/stats/master/o/main_exit_operat...
Would you judge torworld.org, which is on the "/potentially_dangerous_relaygroups" now for a long time to be a commercial service?
Regards Paul

This is correct; our MyFamily settings are very out of sync.

Hi 7proxies tor relay operator,
thanks for adding your new tor relays to the network!
Please do not forget to set the MyFamily parameter in your torrc configuration to tell clients your relays belong to a single operator.
If you need help with the MyFamily option let us know.

I recently got this answer from "torworld.org" -see below.
They told me that a relay https://atlas.torproject.org/#details/3D512D9ACD9A6056ED6EA20C46406FA5A67883... with contact "e @torworld" is not operated by them.
As nusenu showed at the end of the message some days ago somebody with a similar contact address was running 5 at the time, currently 6 relays.
Some questions I like to ask:
Why is somebody running relays with the contact domain of another party?
Is there a way that mails ever reach e@torworld.org?
Why not giving a correct MyFamily set-up when running 6 relays?
5 of 6 relays have a Guard status - let me remind on a recent discussion "How can we trust the guards?" ?

Hello,
This Exit node is not affiliated with us.
"https://atlas.torproject.org/#details/3D512D9ACD9A6056ED6EA20C46406FA5A67883..."
All the nodes we'll operate will have this "abuse [AT] torworld.org - BTC 17iwdtpmgHdPt15twdT2sUcdeKgz9PTNMQ" In their contact info area, and when the website is back up. You can check to see a list of current Tor nodes we operate etc.
As for the MyFamily for the Guard/Middle nodes; Lunar operates/runs those. So you'll have to get in contact with him if you want to talk about his MyFamily setup.
Take care,

Dear bad-relays,
Would you consider banning the following Exits / Guards?
They have an incorrect ContactInfo, which uses the domain of a legitimate relay operator, torworld.org. This may be an attempt to evade automated sybil analysis, as may their variant ContactInfos.
They also don't have MyFamily set, which allows them to collect Guard and Exit traffic from the same clients.

Security TorWorld wrote (2016-12-12):
Hi,
When nodes are run under/by TorWorld we'll have one cluster MyFamily. However; I know a few of our members run private nodes with their "torworld.org" email address. So most likely you'll see some of our members running their own systems.
Thanks for showing us the updated list.

I think you misinterpreted this.
Relays with contact "e @ torworld.org" are not run by "abuse @ torworld.org" and this is reflected in the contact.
Why is somebody running relays with the contact domain of another party?
They give away email addresses under their domain to 3th parties - not so unusual.
Is there a way that mails ever reach e@torworld.org?
I never got an error when writing emails to e@torworld.org
Hi BrassHornCommunications,
looks like you added a new relay to your fleet of relays five days ago, please do not forget to update your MyFamily.
If you plan to grow further it can be handy to preemptively create relay keys so you don't have to touch all relays every time you add a new one.
Also let us know if BrassHornRelay16 is not yours.
