Onion sites do not utilize an exit node.
Onion sites do not utilize an exit node.
If the server is on the Tor network, an onion server, then it is encrypted end to end and no traffic or identity is exposed to either the onion server or any intermediary.
That is to say, if I started an onion server on one side of the world, then connected to it from somewhere else, my connection to it would be anonymous and encrypted to any external entity.
How are you imagining the penultimate node in the chain connects to the target server without knowing anything about them?
This is well understood public knowledge.
There is a node that delivers your packet to the target server, is there not?
