William Weber, a LowEndTalk member, was raided by Austrian police in 2012 for operating a Tor exit node that was allegedly used to distribute child pornography. While he was not arrested, many of his computers and devices were confiscated. He was later found guilty of supporting the distribution of child pornography through his Tor exit node, though he claims it was unintentional and he was simply supporting free speech and anonymity. He was given a 5 year probation sentence but left Austria shortly after. Though some articles portray him negatively, it is debatable whether he intentionally supported child pornography distribution or simply operated in the legal grey area of Tor exit nodes.
I mean it’s an exit node and the open web you don’t really get to complain about lack of privacy when leaving Tor.
OTOH, there’s a simple problem: That traffic is still likely encrypted. It’s not like Tor exit nodes do the TLS handshake, do they? That would indeed be much stranger than applying traffic shaping.
