It is very easy to fill ContactInfo with something meaningless, including automatically. Nicknames are required to be non-empty, did that stop any abuse? At its simplest bots or abusers can set ContactInfo to be the same as nickname; or to a different randomly generated word or phrase. I suggest to carefully weigh all the possible positive effect from this (if any at all!!) against the effort required to advocate for and then implement such policy change. -- With respect, Roman _______________________________________________ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays
