Hetzner is a budget server host as is OVH, and which you shouldn't assume a professional service. You get access to a server, free hardware replacements and a network, that's it. It cheaper and easier to mitigate any issues by slamming the power switch and than notifying you.

Folk ask why I colo. And the why is because it's my hardware. If my host is to touch my kit without my permission or a subpoena they'll get slapped with a solicitor.



Anecdotally, we herited a ovh dedi infrastructure when signing a new client and tbh its been going swimmingly. I think the Incident made them really up their game.


That doesn't solve the issue of making a domain unresolvable if the registrar chooses to do so like the case in here, or does it?


It can. By becoming your own registar. Granted that costs $$ but solves the problem of if a register is deciding to axe you.


Is that still $350k minimum?


If that were it then there wouldn't be a problem. You don't even have access to the server you paid for.
