    Verifying foreign accounts, how do you do it?

    I agree with Kayaba Akihiko. Also, isn't MaxMind Phone Verification going away by the end of the year?

    DDOS protected transit?

    If you want to save money on this, then you should locate your equipment where affordable DDoS-protected transit can be found. CNSERVERS would be an excellent option -- their transit rates are very competitive, but you would have to host in Portland or Seattle unless you're willing to use a GRE...

    What's your car?

    2006 Porsche Cayman S, but with Seattle traffic I much prefer to get around on bicycle... that is when it's not raining of course :-)

    Windows 10 anyone?

    Well if history is any indication, this should be a good OS -- WinXP, good, Win Vista, crap, Win7, good, Win8 crap, Win10, good? :-)

    CloudFlare Issues in NA

    I wonder what exactly happened at that Colombian ISP -- fat fingered an outbound prefix filter edit? Did they announce a bunch of other erroneous prefixes as well or specifically just Cloudflare prefixes?

    Do you use Bitcoin?

     We use BitPay as well. Every transaction is immediately settled in dollars. I didn't think we'd get too many payments via Bitcoin, but over time it has begun to account for a surprisingly high percentage of our payments (~4%).

    Do I actually need CSF or fail2ban if behind CloudFlare?

    CloudFlare doesn't protect against a whole range of attacks that could be targeted at your domain name. CSF, mod_security, etc are all essential for your security.

    Do you sell domain names too?

    Even with an automated system you're still going to have to field trouble tickets along the lines of "how do I create nameservers" and "can you help me transfer my domain name". Unless you're in the business of shared hosting, I don't think offering domain name registration services is worth it.

    At $25 per month most hosts won't be able to cover the cost of the electricity on a server like that under load.

    Synchronised Home Directory / Workspace

    Do you sell domain names too?

    We've offer domain name registration services in the past, but we no longer do. Unless your customers are primarily novices, it really does not provide much of an extra convenience to integrate domain name registration through your billing control panel. It's just as easy for the customer to...
