I remember reading that OVH is very popular in the Scene[0], for running topsites and the like. The reliability and bandwidth must be pretty good for them to be used by the Scene.

- aes256 14y agoOVH are most certainly not popular with the scene! That said, OVH is extremely popular with those involved in piracy more broadly, and their servers are used extensively as seedboxes.
- w1ntermute 14y agoMy bad, maybe I got the popular seedbox hosts confused with the popular topsite hosts. For some reason, I seem to remember OVH being mentioned in a scene notice. It might've been when they busted a topsite for leaking releases to a seedbox used by a private torrent site uploader.
- aes256 14y agoYep, if OVH were referred to it would only have been in a negative context, e.g. outing a P2L (Pay to Leech) site or someone seeding files to torrent trackers.
