(Quote) This is well-known behavior, but at the same time, there are three different levels of blacklisting by UCEPROTECT. Level 1 blacklisting would concern your IP address specifically, whereas blacklisting at levels 2 and 3 would concern IP addr…

(Quote) I've just flagged this post as a test. It worked. (My earlier attempt with another post didn't work -- this was clear to me.)

I've just tried the flagging function, and it wouldn't let me submit the comment, appearing to say that the comment was too long (it wasn't). (Perhaps this was a one-time weird behavior, but I thought that I would signal it.)

(Quote) What's the point?

(Quote) As I tried to say above in connection with Donald Trump, it's usually because one wants to hide something: often, that one didn't pay enough in taxes. But it could also be that one wants to hide the fact that one made more money than people …

(Quote) Are you the real dustinc or an impersonator?

(Quote) We just get sensitive when a private person around here starts offering storage ...

I had noticed that @MaxKVM haven't been active on LES so far in 2021, which may (or may not) be significant. From July to December of last year, @MaxKVM had a whole series of offers on LES and were active, which is how a number of LES members becam…

(Quote) There was also no (public) apology (unless I missed it).

(Quote) Okay, yes, I see: you might decide that you can trust a provider p with file f but not with file g. (Seriously, though: are one's tax returns really so sensitive? :) Donald Trump's tax returns are very sensitive, but this is because they sh…

If one doesn't trust a particular VPS provider in this respect, then one shouldn't have a VPS at that provider. If one doesn't trust any VPS provider in this respect, then one shouldn't have any VPS at any provider. (Is there much more to say abou…

(Quote) Perhaps this is what the OP had in mind (but which he didn't clarify very well). In any case, the OP may have already disappeared (signed up, posted, then left) -- we'll see.

(Quote) I didn't even think of this ... :o (I was misled by "code etc saving in encrypted files"!)

(Quote) Well, in the sense that your laptop or workstation doesn't need to be connected to the internet.

(Quote) I'm not sure that I really understand what you would be so worried about. I've used (and still use) a VPS as a remote workstation. As long as one takes the usual precautions, I don't see the big risks. It's another matter if you want to ke…

(Quote) Ah, right, you were second. (My apologies to @lentro , who was first.)

I wonder whether we really need two threads about this. https://talk.lowendspirit.com/discussion/2678/hostsolutions-now-serving-food

(Quote) Yeah, that was the crucial clue (but I admit that I didn't see it until I saw your comment!)

(Quote) Ah, so this was why he was banned on the other site

Darn, I didn't wanted to feel tempted again until BF/CM of this year! Life isn't fair!

(Quote) They denied you service because you didn't pass their fraud detection. This isn't the same as "kicking you out". But how is the fact that BuyVM denied you service because you didn't pass their fraud detection relevant to the presen…

(Quote) Hey @Not_Oles , don't be a party pooper! ;) There's also beauty in complexity. (Well, sometimes, or rarely.) :)
