I'm just asking the legal liability of running Tor exits and making it clear. I don't bother with modifying somebody's traffic.
Basically, you are saying once we run exits, the computers are not our own computers any more: Tor exit operators == ISP, from the perspective of laws. What if somebody attacks my computer running a Tor exit via Tor? I have to call police since I cannot check the content of the attack traffic?
