I really need an ELI5 why this is a good idea. OVH is a European company, we have privacy laws here. When asking if you can get the personal information for this servers you only will get a more or less friendly FuckYou. And they have a CW fraction of 15%, if we nag them enough they may change their TOS and start kicking all relays. This will be an even bigger nightmare than DigitalOcean. Let sleeping dogs lie.
