They should be much more careful in how these types of reportings are done. You were doing a public service of already-explited machines that are snarfing credit card numbers. And that is of great importance for anyone who buys stuff online (Like... all of us). It also goes to show, that we need to further develop P2P type technologies like IPFS and similar stacks, to rid ourselves from monolithic companies dictatorial hands. Because what they find "unsuitable", you are no longer welcome. That's a problem, for all of us. I had a similar problem with a VPS provider 2 weeks ago. I run IPFS on all my nodes, and comply with good netizen and compsec principles. They ToSsed me, because "my machine was scanning :4001 and they received a complaint". Bullshit. That is the chatter IPFS uses when maintaining the DHT. However, I was actually using a machine and what I paid for... and they didn't like it. Fortunately, since all my data is via IPFS (and /ipfs and /ipns thanks to filesystem mounting), my data was already backed up and distributed. Filing a dispute with Paypal and purchasing another VPS provider was simple. |
