All big names were once small. I doubt pinboard didn't choose their hosting company wisely, although I get what you're saying. Troubles and down times happen to anyone, it's how good you can deal with them that makes a difference, not the hosting company you choose.
- jvandenbroeck 15y agoOfcourse, there's no blame on pinboard, they handled it amazing! And the webhosting company was around for 7 years if I googled it correctly - but I do think there's a big difference between webhosting company's. Suppose DigitalOne rents space in a datacenter and has no one on-site (exept for staff from the datacenter). I can imagine that if the FBI enters there "we need servers from IP x.x.x.x and y.y.y.y immediately - that the people from the datacenter just point to the servers from DigitalOne "oh that's in their range".. Ofcourse that's just speculation if you don't know how it really went down - never the less, I would chose webhosting carefully if your business depends on it:)
