Middle nodes are not as exposed as exit nodes IMO.

Thanks for sharing!

Understandably, it feels very uncomfortable and maybe even traumatizing
when somebody uses a tool you've put up for good to do something evil
with instead. I can't imagine what it would feel like if that happened
to me.

But.. that could have happened with anything, a hammer, a car, or
anything else you might have sold or borrowed in good faith to somebody
you don't know.

Cheers!
