So Digital Ocean could freely decide if a content is harassing without any legal court order or something?
So if I decide to use their service(which I was considering btw) should I worry about wether or not they will deem my content inappropriate?
So if I want to have a site where I would have users who can say/post whatever they want(freedom of speech and all that human right stuff) I can't host it on DO, because somebody might just send a bogus email to them and they would act on it?
- rsynnott 13y ago> So Digital Ocean could freely decide if a content is harassing without any legal court order or something? Their TOS presumably allow this, as do the TOSes of most hosts, but this seems like a pretty bizarre use of discretionary terms, and would definitely put a lot of people off using it for anything much.
- voidr 13y agoIt's perfectly fine for a TOS to allow a service provider to comply with the law. The problem is when they have their own highly ambiguous laws and lack a proper system to resolve violations.
- untothebreach 13y agoI don't think what they are doing is the right thing to do, but they are perfectly within their right to enforce their TOS. If a person does not like that, they should use a different VPS provider.
