I wonder who comes delivering the FISA court orders?  Perhaps doing what many have done before and sending him back to the Court with something extra special :)

You've never spoke truer words @Aldryic. I foresaw this wave of tyranny decades ago.  I thought however that commercial interests wouldn't want to see the mass destruction and centralization of services.   Many small hosts, email hosts, etc. are going to go extinct due to actions by government...

Is this a joke? People expect privacy in their paper and effects.  When I pick up the phone and there is someone else uninvited on my call, that's a tap interception and clearly illegal unless court ordered for specifically me.   It isn't a bulk free-for-all order.  Requires some tiny speck of...

If Snowden was hosting there, ummm well, then Lavabit has real legal issues and a PR / legal fight isn't going to have any legs. Snowden's disclosures would clearly fall under Patriot Act and even absent that poor legislation would be covered under prior practices and "standards". If, a...

Buffalo is a g*d damn cesspool. Blame Biloh and kid hosting inc. Buffalo short list:  BuyVM and Backupsy.

@Leyton,   do you offer something else ---- non Microsoft Exchange based?

WTF?   Let me guess, Lavabit had *bad* users that the feds wanted to sniff their dirty laundry?   I've been weary of Lavabit and recently saw of their many accounts less than 10% of the accounts were actively logging in (as per their stats). If I were getting into the privacy focused hosting...

Really?  No one here in the states makes tin foil (which is actually steel foil).  They haven't made that since 1940's. See how out of touch you folks who claim tin foil are?  Lost in the 1940's.  Better watch, there could be a Hitler behind every bush.

Total congrats on being the semi rare creature with integrity and honesty. I hope you re-enter the industry in the future when time allows.  

Good random stuff there @wdq.   Came from Eben Moglen's FreedomBox project (wish Eben would get launching things in beta already). So much hope so long ago for Freedombox... errr...

Well congrats to Cloudshards. What's the story on this?  More industry weakness?  Someone just offer the right amount to say yes?   

China is known world wide for exporting garbage and poison.  My favorite was them making fake rice out of plastic.  Serious distrust with China. I have an ongoing f-u festival with global food retailer Aldis (you know them in Europe for selling you horse meat pretending to be beef).  They just...

That thread is some classic gold.   Snorting my beverage laughing a second ago at some of it: This ---> "Yo dawg, we heard you liked vps's so we put a vps in yo vps so you can vps while you vps."

Cocaine and Rick James were hell of friends. I know Jarland and he wouldn't stereotype like that or mean anything malicious like that. When I first saw this thread I did a WTF and heart raced for a second.  But knowing the poster, I was a tad relieved and ready to read. It's a stand out post...

Pie man rocking the pin stripes.  Looks good on you. So you ate dog.  Is that a delicacy or typical in Korea?  Does it show up on menus or does it require special words with the chef/staff? I know of a story nearby me in the big city where a place became really popular for a summer for their...

:) Yes the topic title stands out on here @jarland.  Good to see you my friend! I love Middle Eastern food - minus the meat.   Sign me up for potluck in the lounge here :)

No doubt super @Francisco, I botched that last one.  HTTPNode was the to-be merged with DotVPS. Super doh! WHT chatter about slowdown/drops in business is concerning.  I don't frequent that / provider threads.  Seem to be far more chatter than usual on that about this slump?    I have nagging...

This first server is from Commercialmedia and the company is a horror story: http://www.lowendbox.com/blog/commercialmedia-35-00month-16gb-ram-intel-dual-xeon-l5420-in-ashburn-virginia/ Mind you, if your server never needs human aid and you like week wait times, it might be acceptable for you.

"SSL version of the site?" That would be awesome if easily doable. I didn't expect such a quick and complete cleanup.  No offense meant in dissecting things earlier like this.  Figured it was sane thing to pursue.

Neato @Shados.  Wasn't familiar with Docomo's phones until now.  Thank you. The LG L-01E dual screen function sounds pretty interesting.   One very interesting phone. As far as shock proof, well never killed one per se in such a manner.  Did have a digitizer go partially bad due to exposure to...
