I don't get Daniel Hosting... Why did he offer free hosting? What was the business model? He said, you are not allowed to host illegal content according to German law, i wonder how he managed to maintain this state with 6.5k pages up. In the end it would be quite easy to raid him for some CP, quite a risk for what gain?

Because why not? Not everything is a business and if you believe Tor as a right of privacy in the digital age and you wish to make it available to everyone, why not? Censorship comes in many forms, and technological literacy in the form of running a LAMP Stack and knowing how to modify apache is slim in the world, php/mysql, forget about it. 6.5K pages is not a lot of data, especially for interactive and probably non-rich dynamic pages. Consider it as a geocities in the 90's. What probably happen was there was an jail escape that enabled a live shell and that person killed it. From who knows whom - As for running a tor site, the most suspicious thing about it is being a tor exit node.

  Not everything is a business but many other hobbies have a way lower probability to put you in jail.
