Please be warned this is from 2012 and is kept for historical value.

Below are some small developments with respect to my Tor exit routing operations. I updated my torrc file by removing the configuration lines that I don’t use and the comment verbiage. I also added a new low-bandwidth exit router on a VPS in Iceland, tor.pirate.is, and made sure to update my MyFamily fingerprint line.

I also updated both to Tor 0.2.3.19-rc. Since I run these as a hobby, I don’t mind running bleeding-edge exit routers.
