OVH and Tor Relay?

Hello,
Just a quick question: does OVH accept Tor middle relays on their dedicated servers?

I don’t want to get my account banned at the drop of a hat lol

Thanks a lot.

You should be fine running a middle relay on their services, however it’s best to contact them directly and ask.

I think you are fine if you look how many relays are on OVH → Relay Search

What about that hmm…
They said “Yes”
and “No”

Litteraly.
“I can confirm that we tolerate Tor nodes at OVHcloud + If you follow TOR best practices, there will be no impact on your service even if you generate a lot of traffic (hundreds of TB of data every month).” (Twitter Support)

And on other ticket :
“The use of Tor on our servers is not allowed regardless of the use.”

Lol

This is such an OVH moment.

So yeah you can understand why I ask the question and I’m a little frisky lol :grin:

I don’t know which opinion to trust.
That said the response on Twitter, the person in charge told me she checked and asked for confirmation from the infrastructure team, who replied that it was ok with them.

A really crazy thing

I think I’ll create my relay anyway, and if they give me any trouble, I’ll tell them it’s their fault for giving me contradictory answers.
