It's not useful to bury your head in the sand and write it off as an intimidating suggestion. Take a look at the Tor relay operations faq [1].
> Has anyone ever been sued or prosecuted for running Tor?
> Although we are not aware of an individual being sued, prosecuted, or convicted for running a Tor relay, law enforcement in the United States and other countries has occasionally mistakenly investigated individuals running a Tor relay. We believe that running a Tor relay, including an exit relay that allows people to anonymously send and receive traffic, is legal under U.S. law. Law enforcement, however, often misunderstands how Tor works and has occasionally attributed illegal traffic on the network as originating from a Tor exit relay. This has resulted in police suspecting Tor relay operators of crimes and sometimes seizing computer equipment, including Tor relays. For example, in 2016 Seattle police mistakenly raided the home of a privacy activist operating a Tor exit relay. And Russian authorities wrongfully arrested math instructor and Tor relay operator Dmitry Bogatov, though they later cleared him of charges.
