Re: [tor-relays] Digital Ocean - running Exit node locked

I'm running on DO as well with the reduced exit policy and have had about five complaints in 2 months. DO certainly appears to be getting less and less happy. I'm glad to know it's not just me, though. Hopefully a curated list of IPs to reject will help a lot. Thanks for the link to tornull.
