Re: [tor-relays] Dealing with OVH Abuse Complaints



Hi,

I was considering moving my relay to OVH and asked them about their policies
The answer is that Tor is tolerated on physical servers, but strictly forbidden on VPS
And BTW, their support is indeed terrible...

So, if someone could recommend a Tor friendly ISP in Belgium, I would be pretty much interested!

Cheers

possibilité de procéder à la suspension immédiate et sans
préavis de tout Serveur sur lequel serait proposé à titre
gracieux ou onéreux, un service ouvert au public de Proxy,
IRC, VPN, TOR, pour lequel OVH aurait connaissance
d'une utilisation malveillante, frauduleuse ou illicite.

Some take this as "OVH doesn't allow Tor", I take this as "don't run exits there".
