I=E2=80=99ll just simplify this and say that the Tor Project publishes a =
list of its exit nodes so you can block these if your abuse/fraud =
requirements necessitate this.
https://check.torproject.org/cgi-bin/TorBulkExitList.py
If it=E2=80=99s for geolocation blocking, I=E2=80=99m in favor of these =
political limitations to go away. It doesn=E2=80=99t take a genius to =
bypass these if that=E2=80=99s your intent.
