In my opinion the tragedy here is not that people abuse Tor, because everything will be abused. It's that providers will allow themselves to be bullied, and then bully others, when behavior falls into the bucket of "legal, but annoying". If they SWIPed the IP, this could be averted easily, and remove Linode from having to deal with the complaints at all, but they won't do that either. -tom (who also uses Linode for his server, but runs it as a middleman) _______________________________________________ tor-talk mailing list tor-talk@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
