#3This thread is not really interesting because we don’t have the Hetzner’s side of the story.

#4Hang on, Hetzner literally deleted all their data without warning?
That’s actually insane and business killing. Both for Hetzner’s reputation and potentially for their customer.

#5also negative experiences here. if they get a copyright-violation request from someone, they won't contact you about it. they'll just take your server down immediately and ask you to respond. obviously thats not a sane course of action and i cannot recommend using them for any kind of production systems.
i am always angry if i see articles about them here on HN because such a vendor should be blacklisted and not promoted.

That’s not my experience. We get these emails about once every 6 months, we act and respond, and they don’t take anything down.
