It is, but the sad reality is that while you contribute your capacity for good cause it’ll be abused by bad actors as well. Obviously with snowflake node you don’t get to see what’s excactly going trough, but some time ago I had exit node running and I got several calls from my ISP that there’s malicious traffic coming from my IP address. ISP managed it pretty well when I explained what’s going on but eventually they got so many complaints from other peers on the network that they took ‘hard route’ and told that they’ll take my connection down unless I shut down the node. No hard feelings for the ISP, they took all the abuse mails and other annoyance for me and I absolutely understand their decision. But it’s good to at least acknowledge that tor isn’t just to get around oppressive policies.
