Abuse is a complaint to a hosting provider from a third party. Often, such complaints include a requirement to remove or block certain content of the site due to violation of applicable law, property rights or copyrights.
Typically, claims are received by hosting providers, companies that provide their resources for hosting sites. Hosters check whether the complaints are justified. They then contact the site owner with a request to remove the inappropriate content.
If he does not fulfill the condition, the hosting provider terminates the contract with the client, deletes his sites from their servers and may transfer the personal information of the site owner to law enforcement agencies.
How is Bulletproof Hosting Different from Regular Web Hosting?
Bulletproof hosting is a service where you have the opportunity to post information of any nature: torrent trackers, warez (distribution of licensed software), phishing, adult, ignoring DMCA, and so on, and be more or less calm that the hosting company will not delete your server without warnings at the first complaint (abuse).
Most Bulletproof hosting (BPH) providers promise immunity from copyright infringement and court-ordered removal notices, notably the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), the E-Commerce Directive (ECD) and subpoenas. In these cases providers (known as ‘offshore providers’) operate in jurisdictions that do not have any extradition treaties or a mutual legal assistance treaty (MLAT) signed with Five Eyes countries (AMUN), in particular the United States . However, most hosting providers have a zero-tolerance policy towards child pornography and terrorism.
The predominant jurisdictions for registering and hosting data centres for abusive providers are China, the Netherlands, Moldova, Ukraine, Russia, Romania, Bulgaria, Belize, Panama and the Seychelles. In principle, any hosting can be used as an abusive. The main thing is not to be greedy and do not draw attention to yourself: no need to select all resources (bitcoin mining); no need to clog the entire dedicated Internet channel incomprehensible requests (hello torrent lovers), watch to at least 30% of the Internet channel were free.
Pros of BPH: Provides privacy, anonymity and protection against DMCA requests. Secure data centres. They accept cryptocurrencies.
Cons of BPH: Expensive prices. No refunds.
Abuso-resistant domains: Separately, it is worth bringing out the problem of abusa on domain name – this is rarely anyone can afford it because it will cost not a complaint hoster, and the owner of the domain zone, which simply lock up the domain. Bulletproof domains are often bought from Chinese registrars, popular zone com and cc (domain Cocos Islands).
