dude is innocent man.
Stupidity or ignorance of the law does not make you innocent. Great though the guy was for running a tor node, he did not realize what liability he set himself up for. Unfortunate and I feel for the guy, but he was technically guilty and that's all that matters in the court of law.
I mean he's not. He did literally allow CP to be uploaded. And he literally wasn't legally protected.
Kind of crazy how unsympathetic people are being towards Tor and Tor operators here
But it's kind of like arresting the gas station owner for allowing a drug deal in his parking lot.
