Fifteen years ago a friend and I discussed this. He posited it like this:

"If you want to help Chinese dissidents, you run a Tor exit node so they have some place to connect to. The problem is that you have no actual control over who gets to use your exit node, and you run the risk of being arrested for child porn because you want to support political dissidents in authoritarian countries."

Not long after that conversation a man was arrested for child porn for.... running a Tor exit node.
