Regardless of whether it is encrypted or not. ;-) Also with dedicated servers or in colocation: Encrypting a Tor relay hd, especially exits, is NOT recommended! In the event of a seizure, it could take months or years to get your server back. We don't host files, we don't have logs. A Tor relay is a dumb router that forwards encrypted traffic. Other than the master identity key's, there is nothing interesting on a Tor relay. Therefore, use offline relay identity keys: https://gitlab.torproject.org/legacy/trac/-/wikis/doc/TorRelaySecurity/OfflineKeys -- ╰_╯ Ciao Marco!

Don't know what FDE is, but at Frantech/BuyVM you can install everything because you can upload your own ISO. FDE means Full Disk Encryption. Remember, running FDE in virtual environment we give access to encryption keys to admin of the host machine :) Best, Bart ___ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays

IONOS is good - just keep the data throughput around 25%, and they should leave you alone.

Hello- Im looking for <= $6/mo VPS suggestions for general non-tor server and also for tor. Some super-cheap hosts pre-install O/S and give root but I want to install O/S myself so can put in FDE. Hard to see which hosts can do this. I tried Linode before and yes, could get FDE ($5 1GB, 1CPU, 25GB, 1TB) Is IONOS any good? Can I get FDE there??
