Good evening,

Apologies as this is likely the incorrect way to do things. I'm not fantastic 
with mailing lists. I saw on tor forum that some people were getting these 
netscan emails from hetzner.
https://forum.torproject.org/t/tor-relays-abuse-report-from-relays-in-family-7eaac49a7840d33b62fa276429f3b03c92aa9327/20693

I got my first a few months ago and I just got my second one about an hour ago. 
Both times it was to the 1st amendment group IP addresses. Last time I just 
clicked their check button and it passed and then I gave reasoning in the next 
link. For some reason it doesn't seem to be liking when I click the first link 
this time and keeps saying not solved. I don't know what my best course of 
action is. I've gotten 2 reports for hetzner for a guard and 0 for netcup for 
an exit relay :( I saw in the forum post (which is to a clone of the mailing 
list) about temporarily blocking tor but that feels a bit deceptive so I don't 
really want to go down that route. The best thing though it may be a long 
process as there may be a potential harm to how circuits are built negatively 
affecting user anonymity is for the tor program to operate in a manner so that 
it doesn't look like a netscan to some sensitive providers like hetzner even 
though we know it isn't a netscan anyways.

If this issue keeps coming up with hetzner I may look at not hosting a tor 
relay with them because I have a lot of stuff on this server like my personal 
website and project mirrors and such and don't want those to be negatively 
affected due to a unjust IP ban by hetzner for running a tor relay.

Any advice?

Kind regards,
Diyar Ciftci
