Tor exit

The node where Tor traffic leaves the network — visible and public by design.

A Tor exit is the relay that sends traffic to the open internet. Exit addresses are published by the Tor Project, so using one is visible to anyone who checks the list.

Exits rotate: an address that exited yesterday may be a normal household today. Match on the exact IP, refresh often, and never block a whole ASN because one exit lives there.

For store operations, registration from a Tor exit is almost always reviewed.
