      The kind that did a cost analysis of buying their own hardware and running costs vs the cost of a VPS. Or the kind that doesn’t have good uplink bandwidth and wants to share with family and friends.

        You would have to be a fucking moron of the highest order to upload tons of illegal content to a cloud based server.

          As opposed to keeping it at home? 🙂 How is it any worse? If anything it can be better, there are some VPS services that attempt to preserve your privacy to some extent.

        Yeah and it was banned for being heavily used by awful criminals. Probably not a big deal to switch hosts even if you didn’t self host for some reason

          You can have a perfectly legal collection, not give anyone else access and still be affected just because you use a particular host provider.
