Hey, just want to plonk a link to this topic here for anyone interested in running a LN node in the USA:
Devastating "Infrastructure" bill in US - contact your representatives

Apparently they want to treat node operators as brokers due to 'facilitating transactions'.
Maybe worth following if you're located there..

Kohas787 will be so happy that he can start spam-calling the nearest FBI office, and report that his neighbor is running a Lightning node from the basement, earning $5.00 in routing fees per week.

If only somene wrote a guide in how to run a Lightning node over the TOR network, https://stopanddecrypt.medium.com/running-bitcoin-lightning-nodes-over-the-tor-network-2021-edition-489180297d5 Cool

And for those who are using a 'node in a box'

If you are using a Raspiblitz to run over tor it's s single click and a reboot.
For mynode it's insert $99 and click a and reboot as it's a premium feature
Umbrel also can use TOR, not sure of how to configure it. Setting up an umbel box is on the to-do list.

So if you are a bit twitchy about setting up / running a linux box you can still run it all on TOR
