It's not a completely insane thing to do... let's remember there would
be no Tor network without exits.

It's a question of doing some planning and choosing the right provider, etc.

Without sane individuals running exits, the Tor network would be a less
safe place.

As above, it depends.

Exits are under one in seven of all relays... and the US has the most:

Yes.. .I see 19 Tor relays in .in now, of which three are FreeBSD.
Certainly an improvement.
