I'm an experienced linux system administrator currently employed for a U.S. company. In my spare time I run a public E-mail provider with 132,000 users, and a VPS provider with >$1K MRR. I'm interested in positions in the security or sysadmin space, with bonus points for companies providing services that respect users' privacy, or provide a tangibly beneficial product or service as part of their business model. I'm also open to development work but only as an aside. Sysadmin first, programmer second. A sense of humor is required as my side projects aren't exactly politically correct, though I keep work and my personal ventures completely separate.

Due to my work providing privacy-oriented services, I recently had $2,000 worth of electronics seized at the U.S. border because I refused to decrypt my electronic devices. Because of this, relocating to the U.S. is not an option.

Really interesting about the border. Do you have a write-up anywhere? I'd love to hear more about it.
