    IP Systems Ltd AS62741 Acquires A Lot Of IPs...

    That depends on your definition of clean. They still have an entire /15 blacklisted so 131K dirty IPs or close to 17% of their 785K total. Compare that to a larger provider like Hetzner who has only 1 IP (out of 838K) blacklisted, or a giant with millions of customers like GoDaddy with only 4...

    Is it legal to deny new orders or block orders from high risk countries?

    You can refuse business from any country with the exception of one country if you are a US company but under a US law passed by Congress in 1977, US companies are subject to criminal penalties of up to $50,000, and/or imprisonment of up to 5 years,  if they participate in a boycott of one...

    Starting a VPS business with $10,000. How would you spend it?

    Nothing like wasting 40% of your startup funds, and the money would be wasted since the rest of the business plan screams host in a box with nothing to differentiate it from the competition. (and as an end user, the last time I bought from a host because they had a great domain name or ranked on...

    DigitalOcean raised $83 million in Series B funding

     I'll answer that question with the same reply I gave to DO's co-founder Ben a couple of years ago: IaaS cloud is a highly competitive commodity business with a downward pricing trend. DO's best bet is to either sell out or do an IPO soon while their valuation is at a peak before the bubble...

    DigitalOcean raised $83 million in Series B funding

    They've raised over $100 million from VC investors but you're right "they are not worth $100M though."  The latest estimates put DO's valuation at around $680 million. $680M (and I've seen estimates as high as $800M) for what is essentially a commodity IaaS play...someone say bubble?

    Agreed, and as recent news events have taught us, the best way to bring about meaningful change is to ban a symbol, so I'm starting a petition which I hope will make this forum a nicer place for everyone so we can all enjoy a life of sunshine and rainbows of happiness shooting out of our asses...

    HELP! I have a VPS problem! (It's been 2 days since my last order)

    I thought I had my VPS problem under control but then LeaseWeb lowered the regular price for their 1GB to $4.95/€4.95 and on top of that they are having a 40% off sale this weekend, so under $3/€3 for something that's not in Buffalo and isn't down for weeks at a time...tempting but only if I can...

    The Confederate battle flag.

    The group that wants to disarm NYC cops is less of a joke than the group that wants to fire corrupt NYC cops.  Crime rates with 49,000 disarmed cops policing the streets would still be much lower than they would be if the NYC police force was reduced to less than 1,000 honest armed cops if the...

    What are VPN providers that will let me pay with bitcoin?

    My Bitcoin accepting VPN service list would be AirVPN and TorGuard.  Both also have native Linux clients (PIA isn't on my list only because their server performance in some areas can fluctuate wildly depending on time of day...i.e. server overloading).

    Greece - what's next?

    Bitcoin would allow a few Greek geeks to pay their VPS bills but Greece has the 3rd lowest Internet penetration rate in the EU (59.9% based on 2013 stats) so switching to crypto currencies isn't really a viable solution for the average person  transacting business or trying to pay their...
