Where to get legal help if you receive complaints about Tor traffic or alleged abuse

Tor Project developers cannot provide legal advice. If you've received an abuse complaint, a subpoena, or have other legal concerns related to Tor traffic, please consult the external legal resources linked below.

We're only the developers. We can answer technical questions, but we're not the ones to talk to about legal questions or concerns.

Please read the legal FAQ written by EFF lawyers, and contact EFF directly if you have any further legal questions. There's a growing legal directory of people who may be able to help you.

If you need to check if a certain IP address was acting as a Tor exit node at a certain date and time, you can use the ExoneraTor tool to query the historic Tor relay lists and get an answer.
