My main PC was shut down normally, as far as i could determine. My storage cubes (HP MicroServers) were confiscated without any regard for the hardware – the power cords were simply ripped out / hard shutdown, instead of properly shutting them down by the operating system. Paper documents in a cupboard were read, and no care was taken of my cat (who I was allowed to lock into another room later). Seven LKA officers, two police offers, and a court-appointed expert witness started a search of the flat, without respecting my privacy or property whatsoever. The guy, William Weber, has a blog post with some photos. Apparently, those in Austria still need more help, as it’s being reported that another Austrian tor exit node operator has been charged with child porn distribution. We wondered how difficult it would be to teach law enforcement how tor worked.

Last year, we wrote about how Austrian police had seized computers from a tor exit node, showing little comprehension of how tor worked, and why the operator of the node was not responsible for the content accessed.
