I still don't think you get the idea. Using 'the old lemon man jumped high as a pokemon' across multiple services may be secure from someone trying to hack just you, but it's much …

I may do, it's not too difficult for people who care about it to just take it out - I'd actually rather people take the code, remove tracking if they'd like, edit colours/whatever …

Very unfair to be using a t1.micro instance, they're only meant to give very short bursts of power and don't give any dedicated hardware (so giving the hardware specs is pointless)…
