Title: Tor node checker?
Post by: merrypoopin on March 02, 2012, 03:19 am
I came across a link a few weeks ago that mentioned something about a Tor node checker, which checked to ensure the validity/security of a Tor node (exit node?). 

Of course, now that I actually want to read the page I can't find the link.

Does this ring a bell for anyone?

I personally would avoid using that. Tor already scans for bad exit nodes itself and removes them from the directory servers when they are detected.
