@Green Thank you - couldn’t handle 'attack vector' as a synonym for ""method or type of attack" :-)
Additional to that is it clever for a supporter of TOR to to run more than one Relay (Exit) with a single ISP or even AS https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autonomous_system_(Internet) or does this build a kind of new attack vector?
