Depending on the speed difference - some use VPN provider for whole house safety/ad (DNS). This can be using the server closest your residence or the closest server in the next country over..meanwhile using Netherlands et. al. for bitTorrenting etc. Up to you. It also depends on how many of your household websites will be blacklisting your VPN IP as well. Can get more deep into subject if you want.

Hello! We have been informed about an imminent relocation of our VPN servers in London. They will be migrated to a different datacenter. IP addresses will remain the same. Migration will start on Thursday, 14 Sept 2023, 22:00 UTC +1 and will end on Friday, 15 Sept 2023, 06:00 UTC +1 (London Time) Expected Duration: the migration is anticipated to take 8 hours, during which there will be a full interruption of services. We recommend that you connect to different VPN servers (in UK or elsewhere), not located in London, during the mentioned time frame. Kind regards AirVPN Staff

By using Tor behind an AirVPN node, you are blacklisting dozens of websites for no reason. IRC servers such as Freenode have been blocked, and now even imgur is blocked from uploading because it thinks its Tor. Heze is a good server and its one of only two on the West Coast, so please stop running Tor behind AirVPN nodes.

Yes, it's annoying. I know your thinking, unknown TOR exit runners, you want to help the TOR network by providing one more exit node, because kind of I am afraid of possible legal consequences running a TOR exit node over my ISP line but now I'm behind a VPN and I want to help; it's okay so far. But it's not okay to not take into consideration that some of us use services and websites which constantly try to prevent TOR exit IPs from viewing them (not limited to TOR, some try to block all anonymizer services). A TOR server will be listed on a TOR exit servers list even after you shut it down and as long as it's there we suffer from blocks. Blocks we are trying to circumvent; that's what a proxy service is good for, right? In addition, AirVPN run two exits themselves. Given the bandwidth of these servers (100 MBit/s) I don't think your contribution is a great gain in overall TOR performance as your internet connection is most probably not that fast and not that stable (I assume you use your internet to watch Netflix, play games online and the like, creating traffic which lowers performance of the node). Third, you expose AirVPN and yourself to attacks from the internet by those who want to literally destroy TOR. Attacks on AirVPN's servers will cause line problems, line problems harm the user's experience. You as a TOR exit runner (although behind a VPN) expose yourself to attacks, too: It's not the AirVPN server who gets infected because a vulnerability in the TOR software is being abused; it's your computer. Your computer gets infected, and it's most probably your personal computer with your personal information on it. Your antivirus software is just a bunch of algorithms, too, it's not supposed to detect 100% of vulnerabilites in software and prevent their abuse. And: It's you who will be marked an extremist. If you think it's easy these days to help TOR you are mistaken. Maybe installation and setup is easy, to preserve your own security by running this piece of software sadly is not. So, before you start that TOR software again, think twice. Thank you.
