Didn't I read something about a 99.9% uptime guarantee on their site?Actually, the German Strato AG also has switched their dedicated servers, starting at EUR 70 a month, to an unlimited traffic plan. No fair-use or similar downsides. I'd just like to know what the bandwidth per switch is... and how many servers share that bandwidth.
I don't know and I doubt they will tell you. On the other hand Strato is one of the major hosting players on the German market. I'm convinced bandwidth will be sufficient for a tor node running on apples and oranges hardware.
More expensive than IP traffic will be ISP's personnel expenses for a tor exit gw's abuse handling.Why? They just have to point the finger at the server's owner.

That's not much work to do. I bet they have standardized emails for such cases.
German police do not use email for their inquiries. Usually the letter from police arrives first as fax and a few days later in writing. Not to mention they expect the answer pointing to me the same way. The only known exception accepting email communication I'm aware of has been a German secret service.
