Privacytools.io: Section for web hosting services?

Created on 26 Jan 2017  ·  10Comments  ·  Source: privacytools/privacytools.io

Currently there's only information about cloud file storage and hosting services, but no information about web hosting services such as prq.se and nforce.com. I'm not knowledgeable at all, so anyone who knows this area, your help would be appreciated!

I'll be interested in this too. I somewhat agree with @Shifterovich but it's still a good idea to find out generally what companies are good for privacy even if they're not perfect.

Web hostings aren't private per se. If you care about your users' privacy, you should host the website on your own.

Every website hosting service agrees with the laws of the country it operates on.
Most of them fall under the Five Eyes, Nine Eyes or Fourteen Eyes countries alliances.

@kenshi84 Why don't you search and share here a list of reliable website hosting services outside these Global Mass Surveillance Agreements?

Depends on threat model. I agree it might be a good idea for people who just want to host their websites with some privacy, but I would definitely recommend self-hosting as well.

I have a pending project and I'm actually in need of some ideas now. I do need to clarify my threat model and go from there. Anyone have any ideas of any good solutions they already use?

Can't recommend a hosting provider, but take a look at this domain registration service.

@Shifterovich - can you send again? link is broken

Forgot the https://. Should work now.

@Shifterovich Thanks! And to the admin peops, sorry for the off topic posts.

you can now close this issue @Shifterovich @privacytoolsIO @kenshi84
