The Tor network relies on volunteers to donate bandwidth. The more +people who run servers, the faster the Tor network will be. If you have +at least 20 kilobytes/s each way, please help out Tor by configuring your +Tor to be a server too. We have many features that make Tor servers easy +and convenient, including rate limiting for bandwidth, exit policies so +you can limit your exposure to abuse complaints, and support for dynamic +IP addresses.

Having servers in many different places on the Internet is what +makes Tor users secure. You may also get stronger anonymity yourself, +since remote sites can't know whether connections relayed through your +computer originated at your computer or not.
