Comment (by cypherpunks):
I looked at one month of data (2017-03) and found 78 guard relays which
changed their IP at least once.
I hope you are not punishing guards for changing their IP by resting their
reputation, because:
- attackers can keep the same IP address (making this safeguard
ineffective)
- this would negate the protection operators get by running in
OfflineMasterKey mode
