03:44:01<BlankEclair>(i got a choice between id and prepayment, though i assume that's universal)
03:57:52<@JAA>It varies at least by location of residence, probably several other factors, too.
03:58:28<nicolas17>whether they can send the mafia to your home if you don't pay or not
03:58:47<@JAA>Something like that, yeah.
04:10:37<datechnoman>Haha I had no choice. I would definately had paid over sending my personal information... :(

15:08:11<mystique_altrosky>kiska: yeah hetzner is the worst
15:08:44<mystique_altrosky>They gave a buddy of mine 3 weeks to move 7PB worth of storage servers and only last minute they extended it with another month
15:08:47<mystique_altrosky>and then another
15:08:51<mystique_altrosky>but it was very painful
15:09:29<mystique_altrosky>does make for great blogposts https://www.patreon.com/posts/new-storage-115858383
15:09:38<mystique_altrosky>https://www.patreon.com/posts/2024-stressed-119012624
15:13:24<@arkiver>mystique_altrosky: do you know why hetzner wanted tit gone?
15:14:11<mystique_altrosky>arkiver: so to save 2eur per server, this was all hosted in *helsinki*
15:15:08<@arkiver>and... that was a problem somehow?
15:15:19<mystique_altrosky>the termination mail came when he had the fun problem of "i need sha256 and sha1 hashes of every file" so he had to basically download 9pb and run his storage servers servers at full tilt for a month
15:15:31<@arkiver>ouch
15:15:51<mystique_altrosky>arkiver: yes, he was doing so much on hetzners backbone from helsinki to frankfurt that hetzner decided to just do this nonsense
15:16:17<joepie91|m>I imagine that the reputation of the service might also not have helped...
15:17:14<joepie91|m>the reputation as a warez host, I mean - it tends to not be appreciated by hosting providers, especially cheap ones
15:17:43<mystique_altrosky>joepie91|m: this is nonsense, these servers at hetzner are *storage servers* served by the frontend elsewhere, hetzner doesnt even know whats hosted on these storage servers and i hate when people argue that it's due to abuse(csam, dmca, etc) because its simply not true
15:18:23<mystique_altrosky>arkiver: But then another fun thing happened, a few weeks later hetzner announces that they're going to start to offer their own s3 storage product
15:19:17<joepie91|m>mystique_altrosky: the thing is that when you draw the attention of a provider, the calculus changes; the provider sometimes starts *actively looking into* what you're doing with the server, doing research if needed to determine whether you're too high-risk a customer for them
15:19:56<joepie91|m>"hetzner doesn't even know what's on the servers" is true as long as you don't stand out in their monitoring systems, but "sustained high amounts of traffic" is exactly the sort of thing that would make someone stand out
15:20:19<joepie91|m>it's still not a guarantee that this was a factor in their decision, but it's definitely plausible that it would have been
15:20:51<joepie91|m>and unless you're doing some serious obfuscation, it's usually not too hard to figure out what a server is being used for, even without shell access to the server itself
15:21:07<mystique_altrosky>yeah the backbone helsinki-->frankfurt traffic is expensive for them
15:21:35<joepie91|m>most of the traffic going to a single IP or set of IPs that's also serving a frontend for a site with a warez reputation (whether accurate or otherwise)? yeah, now they would know what it's for...
15:21:56<joepie91|m>right
15:22:41<joepie91|m>also to be clear I am not opposed to pixeldrain or even piracy, for that matter; I'm just saying that this is what the risk assessment process at a lot of providers looks like
15:24:08<joepie91|m>it's why a lot of the more seriously high-risk things have more complex proxying setups, like having it go through a chain of 3 different servers, frontend server -> intermediate server at another provider -> backend server at yet *another* provider
15:24:14<@arkiver>mystique_altrosky: do you think it may have been related to the s3 storage announcement?
15:24:20<@arkiver>freeing up space in that location :P
15:24:37<mystique_altrosky>yes
15:24:43<@arkiver>ouch
15:25:35<mystique_altrosky>joepie91|m: he also had his account full of false abuse cases because hetzner said "stop ddosing this ip address" while he was just deploying a new CDN node :D
15:25:49<mystique_altrosky>hetzner does not like it when you do 50gbits to one ip
15:25:57<mystique_altrosky>and they would nullroute this ip
15:26:18<joepie91|m>ah yeah, that one I've definitely heard of before
15:26:47<joepie91|m>gotta thank the booters for that I guess
15:27:20<mystique_altrosky>yes i've heard of 100g of actual ddos coming out of hetzner before, lol
