It does address it, when you factor in an appropriate choice of non-US VPS provider.
- mindslight 6y agoNot just DMCA warnings, but full extortionary lawsuits. From what I can tell, these exist in most countries. Jurisdiction hopping won't protect you from a determined attacker. Most VPS providers generally insist on recording your identity, probably with government ID, to limit abuse that would otherwise fall onto them. Whereas VPN providers have already made the choice to weather mild abuse complaints. I have looked into bulletproof VPS providers. They're drastic overkill, expensive, and getting in bed with the wrong sorts of people.
