A TB of traffic will cost at least around €2-3 from most european (and other) ISPs with VPS so you basically claim to have enough spare change lying around at the age of 15 to pay €2000-3000/month just for Tor traffic because you're an idealist and after buying all the stuff a 15 year old normally buys first? ;-) I call BS, or rich parents.

(and btw., WW was not running the ISP, he wrote somewhere in this thread that he is just a normal employee)

The average bandwidth price I got from all the ISPs I used in the past was ~1 dollar/megabit. The ISPs I used for my Tor relays were ISPs I was using already for bandwidth-intensive HTTP hosting, so I already had quite a few deals for dirt cheap bandwidth.

I've been paying ~600€ per box (1Gbit, of which I was using at least 60% 24/7, getting to 100% during day hours).

Yep. I got it mostly by selling iOS Tweaks on Cydia Store, private consulting with a few companies, freelancing, and sysadmining.

The only thing apart from my tech equipment and servers that I'm interesting in buying is weed anyway.

Thanks for clarifying that he was not running the ISP. I misread it, probably.
