[tor-relays] public open socks port

2019-10-23 Thread ylms
Hello all, I am wondering if there is any reason why one should not open the socks port of Tor to the public internet? I mean I run a Tor exit or relay, so why should I not open the port and give it to people that can't install Tor on some devices? Thanks for your thoughts. yl
