IMO, Tor should be reserved for escaping repressive regimes and avoiding nation-state level content blocks. Plugging up the network with baseball streaming doesn’t seem like a fair or reasonable use of public resources
Comment on UK/EU homelabbers: would you host a hardened Pi so I can watch baseball I already pay for?

Also, part of the point of Tor is to let various types of traffic reside in the noise.
It’s like…say the only encrypted emails being sent contained stuff that one’s government didn’t like. It’d kind of stand out.

I don’t think you can pick your exit node, can you?

I believe, from long-ago reading, that you can pick a region. I don’t use it myself, though.

If they block VPNs exit ips which aren’t necessarily public they most certainly will block all the Tor exit nodes which are public by design.
