Hey, I was thinking about how to get more companies/organizations to run Tor servers and then it hit me that maybe the expenses associated with doing so could be taken as a tax exemption. It's hard to convince a company to run a Tor server, but if it's in their financial interest, you might have a little more leveragee.
Do people think that running a Tor server could be seen as a donation to the Tor Project (which is a 501(c)(3) charity IIRC)? Or is this kind of like deducting mojitos as "business drinks"? Obviously I'm not looking for advice from a CPA/accountant (although that would be great), just wondering based on people's personal knowledge of tax law. If people think it's worth looking into (or maybe possible), I'd be happy to hire a CPA/tax expert and talk with them about it. I just thought I'd ask here before throwing my money away ; ) Ringo
