    PhotonVPS(Psychz) recommended by Anyone?

    I had services with them like 4 years ago. Network was not good back then, but could have improved now. Overall, service was ok for the price and they also had a pretty liberal abuse policy, not sure if it's still the case. In LA, I would probably go with other ISP for production, but the...

    Do you order DDoS protection?

    Only services I have with no DDoS protection at all are backend ones. Many nights of sleep lost migrating or setting up protection for attacked services.

    What is the antivirus software you're running on your host nodes?

    None? You can do rate limiting for email and that kind of things, but antivirus... no, thanks.

    Looking for VPS in privacy oriented country.

    Liechtenstein is actually privacy oriented and has good connectivity, although not cheap or readily available. Connectivity in Egypt is not exactly great... and Spain is just like any other European country. If he simply wanted to download TV shows, nearly any country in the world will do.

    Why do vps providers not allow TOR?

    Providers banning non-exit nodes do so only because they can't provide the advertised resources. Or because they are either misinformed about the dangers of a middle node or taking a moral stance, I don't know which is worse.

    AFreeCloud - Free cloud-based, Interworx powered web hosting. (Look it says cloud, it must be magica

    I think this is a very nice service and knowing you are behind it is a great assurance. That said, I can't bear with providers forcing me to use a domestic IP while ordering from them. Most of the time, I am untrusted connections. The peering at one of my homes sucks too, so I am always using a...

    Facebook now requires phone and ID verification?

    Use a clean IP plus a "real" name and you'll be fine, I do it from time to time.

    vpsBoard Top Providers of 2014 voting.

    1- Online.net: great commercial strategy to get known which will probably pay out on the long term. 1- SecureDragon: reliable services over the years at a ridiculous price mark. They keep adding nice features too. 1- Bandwagon Host: dirt cheap but reliable OVZ. 1- Prometeus: reliable service...

    Do they offer this service outside France? They were doing so in Europe under the OVH brand, but discontinued it some time ago for foreign clients.

    One of the banks I use: https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/analyze.html?d=cajaespana.net Security is usually a joke in Spain.

    BuyVM announces Europe, Anycast IP's, Floating IP's, & Bandwidth pooling!

    I must say it's impressive to look at the BuyVM evolution during the years. It's like it was yesterday when they were selling OVZ at Fremont.

    Rage4 "Prey-as-you-go" extortioncast DNS business model

    This. If you don't like the terms, don't use the service. It was pretty clear upfront and I'm sure they can do some kind of flat rate if you need to use millions of queries which get up to 500€.
