I have a VPS with an Austrian ISP. Their Ts&Cs already state the following are specifically not allowed:

Tor/i2p/similar exit servers (bridge, entry and middle are fine until further notice)

Last update was Jan 17th, 2014, but this clause has been included for as long as I have been a customer, which is a couple of years. So, I would say at least some Austrian ISPs are aware of the risk.

It's much more likely that they just don't want to deal with the endless stream of DMCA notices that tor exit servers tend to attract.

Same Ts&Cs have country specific sections (they have server options in multiple countries) and for Austria also says:

DMCA is mainly ignored due to being invalid, EUCD is to be followed.

Coincidentally the very person who was sentenced here operates the hosting company you're with (edis.at)
