Agreed. It's impossible to filter out every bad bit, and it will always hit innocent people. I had the police in my house for much less than running an exit node, searching my PC for illegal material, which they didn't find of course - at least enough suspicion was there, totally unreasonable for every knowledgeable person, for a judge to order this investigation. They could have taken my PC and other stuff. I wonder what would happen if I would run an exit node... I don't want to take that risk. Well, I live in Germany, a country where the government is becoming paranoid and beginning to do exactly what George Orwell has foreseen almost 60 years ago. I don't know where this will end, but I am currently very afraid of running an exit node, and won't do it. I give some resources as relay node, that's all I can afford to do. I would like to run an exit node, by the way. There just needs to be some legal clarity on whether and how I could be held responsible for what is going on there. I would even be willing to rent a vserver just for that purpose. But I can't evaluate the risk properly.
