Tor Operator and Wikileaks Volunteer Exonerated in German Court Case

Theodore Reppe, a well known net activist and crypto-anarchist was charged with posting false information on the internet and causing 38 euros in damages. As many of you may remember, he had his house raided earlier which was likely due to his name being on the wikileaks.de domain name. He also runs a Tor exit node, allowing users (and leakers) to access the internet anonymously. Somebody used his exit node to do something that was illegal in Germany however the courts found that he was not guilty of it as clearly he did not commit the act despite it being tracked to his IP address.
