>I don't see anyone in this tale that would expect free hosting for controversial content. BitMitigate was presumably paying Voxility for normal hosting, not for the bulletproof hosting BM was marketing. Those are two quite different services. It appears that BM may have expected free bulletproof hosting from Voxility. (Or maybe not, perhaps they expected to get kicked out) If I pay you to wash my car that doesn’t mean I’m paying you to clean my house. >Right; my point is that if this was a normal event, Voxility would have simply increased fees to match the increased costs of hosting. Bullshit. They’d have terminated the relationship because the customer was not being upfront with them. Besides, going “hey pay us more or you’re going offline” has a real bad vibe to it, I doubt many sane companies would want to do that. This is completely standard practice in the hosting industry. I’ve been kicked out of tens of datacenters (including Voxility!), I know exactly how this works.
