Maybe possible? Not supported, don’t do this, lots of room for misconfiguration. I haven’t touched Tails in years, but they used to have a pretty exotic network stack. I wouldn’t want to try to make that work with VMs.

FWIW we don’t know if Satoshi remained anonymous. We just know that he wasn’t conclusively identified by relatively unsophisticated internet commenters and journalists. OTOH there were many times when Satoshi connected to IRC with non-Tor r

With this kind of providers you’re kind of expected to have your own online backups in order to avoid outages. The price point certainly allows for it.

It was, of course those countries very much picked a side decades ago. OTOH I’m not sure why replacing “third world” with a different euphemism for “poor” would be productive.

Public rates offered by Hetzner are definitely slightly cheaper than OVH, but OVH offers vastly better volume discounts to even fairly small businesses (talking like 10-20k/mo spend). IME OVH also offers much better connectivity around
