They are confusing their own Terms of Service with UK law. Ask for a pointer to the law that makes a proxy server illegal.

I suspect this person or VPS provider is simply misinformed. -- Andrew pgp 0x74ED336B _______________________________________________ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays
