We can accept it, although we’re not wild about how it doesn’t define
what’s really “fair use” on page 2. But still, I’m guessing your use
will be on the more conservative side, so as long as you feel confident
you’re not going to run into trouble with it, let me know and I’ll get
an account made.

The ToS issue has to be resolved, at least. I was a little surprised at
your earlier response that you don’t have a direct contact with them. Am
I following right that you got a grant for hosting from them, without
ever interacting with a specific person over there? If that’s right,
just for my understanding, how did that come about?
We have a separate contact we can hopefully use to connect us to their
legal department. It’s pretty indirect, which is why I was holding out
for someone who might have at least some of the background of what’s
going on here already. But we can work with it if you still want to
proceed with DigitalOcean too, which it sounds like you do.
Thanks,
