I’ve never paid much attention to Hetzner but this interested me. Upon clicking the call to action in the announcement they blocked me with “Request on Hold - Suspicous Activity Detected”. I have no interest in subjecting myself to this treatment.
It's literally just an alternative to Cloudflares attack protection.

The required either PayPal or passport. I have no PayPal account, and their 3rd party verification system only allows passport from your country of residence (signup requires providing a contact address and they pre fill using t…
Theres a perception that the ARM Altra per-thread performance is really bad. But according to my Minecraft benchmarks in Oracle's instances, its better than old Skylake cloud instances... by how much is hard to say since other tenants generate so much variation, but there are proper reviews of the whole SoC floating around out there.
Old Skylake cloud instances is "really bad" in the current day compared to Rome/Milan/Genoa, Sapphire Rapids and Graviton 3 for example. We've moved on from lakes!

The OP indicated this in their original comment: "I asked what I should do to comply, and they banned my account 6 hours later."
That’s pretty suss. Just send your passport and if they have any issues with it, they’ll ask. If they ask you for your passport and you ask “how do I comply” I’d probably suspend the account to since you seem unable or unwilling to comply.

> The required either PayPal or passport I had similar struggles with some non-IT service providers in Germany. They couldn't fathom why I have non-German nationality, German address and driving license from third country. Passport, German address and driving license all have different address on them (all three being EU addresses). It is apparently huge red flag in EU in 21st century. Incredible

I think they really care about two things: VAT and cryptocurrency. Passports are required to prove you should or should not pay the 19% VAT, and crypto (namely, SIA) destroy their servers.
