alt Hacker NewsOne of the problems I can see here is the problem that running a Tor exit node has: badly behaved users are going to be using it to hide their location.
Imaging having the police show up at your door because they've figured out that you're trafficking child porn, when the actual culprit is someone that is using your TV as a proxy to trade child porn.

Groups like Bright Data have pretty good KYC. After the scare of the police visit, the actual perpetrator would go to prison.

I genuinely dislike how user hostile everything has become. I effectively have to become an expert in near everything and track all news on the off-change something major upends previous assumptions. And if I miss it somehow and complain about it, defenders will come out of the woodwork to defend, deflect or derail the conversation.
If there is any good news about this, it is that the fatigue seems to be hitting normal people. Buddy from work complained to me how he now is now forced to be a full blown wifi/internet admin so that his kids' restrictions/limits are appropriately enforced.
I am just venting, because I am not entirely certain what an appropriate solution here is.
