I think there is another aspect here. We allow all customers, even on overzold plans to go over their cpu quota for a short time or a small amount. If everyone starts running unix benches on cron, this will make bursting impossible. Also, running bogus ramdisks to fill the ram is making vswap...

There is a continuous battle between the government which needs to censor everything so news about what they are doing against their citizens and their interests (including the wars abroad which will eventually cost more and more in terms of lives, resources, support for failed states and bunker...

Thank you :)

I have a few issues with that. First, you know the host oversells to keep prices low. You are part of the bargain. If you use a KVM, that is oversold too, probably only traffic but many oversell other aspects. It is not auditing motivations here, it is not even about morality, tho I would...

So this is probably related with our nodes reboots for ovz. If this fixes it, then we can restart selling those :) I always suspected there is some exploit and someone is running it randomly on a handful of nodes (very old nodes are not affected). Also, oddly, after we took out the stock and...

I can buy them at corner machines along with paysafe cards, recharging cards for sims, etc. They last for 12 months to be called with 4 Eur iirc. So when i need to be called to be "checked" by big brother, i can put it in a phone while being out in town and let them call me. The phone can then...

Same here, if you need the resources, fine, running serverbears, dd tests by cron, filling the disk with junk, doing traffic for the sake of it clogging not only one, but 2 providers and or your home connection, that is not only abuse, but also imoral. I have the right to cross the street on a...

To risk a conclusion: If you feel like there is a risk your disk space will not be there tomorrow when you neeed it, then, you should "reserve" it (though I am not sure if this is the best method, most likely when you delete something to make space for something you need, the space will just...

Not all TLDs are handled by ICANN, so there will still be free ones (even more as the number grows). If it comes to that, a sim you can purchase at a machine will do. Payment info, well, there are way around that, at least working against providers, for the government is harder every day, but...

We do not go through files to find people wasting space in purpose or even memory, nor did I see anyone doing this yet, however, if I will, then will be added to my blacklist and at slightest tos breach will get terminated directly. We never had a problem such as resources not there when...

No, this is not the point. I mean, the customer paid and should be able to use resources at any time, but if he wastes them in purpose to do harm, then probably doesnt like the host (us) and I will make sure they understand the feeling is mutual. We go to great lenghts for customers, but, if...

There is going to be the OVH one. I would trust those ppl since they have such a big network and traffic. Lets see how they are performing in reality.

Even worse, you want to rent the car for 2 days a week but use it 24/7 and be pissed if the rent-a-car company shows you the door.

If you want to use the resources to be a jerk, fine, but look at a provider that accepts jerks for the higher price. We dont accept jerks. I believe in maximizing the output fromt he limited resources. I.e. if you purchase a car during warranty you do not come up with schemes to leave the car...

Anyone knows any details about the deals ? Like if there was some cash offered or just rescued ?

Cool, signed up too. This is a plague, even our forum has been targetted by malware, somehow the attacker managed to load a script instead of a picture as avatar taking advantage of improper sanitization. As such any folders where user content can be uploaded have been made readonly :P...

It is beyond interesting ! I am excited ! Expect every kid to sell a gre tunnel as DDoS protection. But, if the ddos magnets move over there, the rest of us can only benefit.

Strange, we were removed from the list of spammer heavens... I wonder what made them change their mind :o

The detail they gave was that their "customers" are annoyed by what comes from our customers (which is what, both incidents were from spamvertized sites, not actual spam, we catch port 25 junk pretty quick) and we need to work much harder, probably a canned reply. I doubt anyone actually checks...

Well, we are having problems with Spamhaus. After years of successful cooperation they deem us spam heaven and escalate every incident to block even further without even notifying. So far /23 is blocked and next time probably the whole ASN. Too much power to those people, nobody to actually...
