Classic misdirection.

“I haven’t run an exit relay since. The police told me they’d be back if it happened again,”

mission accomplished, from their point of view?


[47 Points] None:

But months later, the case remains open with Robinson and Bultmann’s names on police documents linking them to child pornography.


[15 Points] SharpieInThePooper:

I always thought 4chan didn't let you post via Tor? Or is it that most Tor IP's have been banned but some haven't been banned yet?


[13 Points] Thx002:

Hahahahahaha so if you use a VPN they raid the datacenter? Good God.


[10 Points] weedandsyrup:

surprised it wasn't posted on /b/


[7 Points] drugsnboobs:

Unpopular opinion: it's totally justified to search computers that were used to post child pornography.

Obviously the police should've checked the list of TOR relays but that's a policing/community oversight issue.

Maybe they're a big time vendor just covering their tracks lol

You have to be completely fucking retarded to run an exit node.
