Summary
F3 Netze e.V.
hosting transit
A small German nonprofit network association (F3NETZE, F3 Netze e.V.). It is not
a commercial VPS provider despite some registry labels — it runs privacy and
community internet infrastructure, and is best known for operating Tor exit relays.
What it's used for
- Hosting community/privacy infrastructure, most visibly Tor exit nodes in the well-known 185.220.100.0/24 range.
Notable
- Traffic from an IP here is typically Tor exit traffic, not a hosted customer service — the real source is an anonymous Tor user, so it is frequently seen in abuse and anonymised-traffic contexts.
- The network is tiny (a handful of prefixes), run by volunteers rather than a hosting business.
Interesting
- The 185.220.100.0/24 block is one of the more recognisable Tor exit ranges on the internet.
