I need a webhost that won't suspend my service

Stay away from Host Big, They are Horrible. You pay for what you get with them. Webhost FAIL!

A note to those wanting to use PRQ - they require a copy of your drivers license or passport.  They also needed my name, address, SSN and phone number.  I gave it all to them because I don't care, so hopefully they're not identity thieves.  They say that I could choose to be anonymous for 25% more, which is still a good hosting deal.  I'm a cheapskate, though, so I gave them my infoz.  Below is what they emailed me regarding this.

Note: If you want to be anonymous, we must charge Swedish VAT (25%).
Otherwise we are required to get all customer information (full name,
address, phone number, VAT and/or social security number along with a copy
of your passport, if it\'s a company, we need a copy of the company
registration papers. This information will be kept along with the customer
information, it will be saved for 10 years in accordance with Swedish book
keeping law). This is a requirement from the Swedish IRS, nothing that we
can help.

Hmm that's interesting and somewhat surprising.

I use webhostingpad they are pretty cheap.

I found another one that's similar to PRQ with policies to protect your content, but they offer 60 gigs of storage space for the same price.. http://a9-hosting.com

Wow, fuck PRQ, I'm using these guys!

[Acidpez]

sweet deal.

Another thing about PRQ is that they're taking FOREVER to send my account login infoz and stuff.  Goddammit, PRQ, I really want to get started on all my fun new projects.

[rbcp]

The reason PRQ took forever was because I PayPaled the wrong person my $10 hosting fee.  I'm so dumb.  I guess maybe Firefox auto-corrected the name I sent it to so it was the wrong name.  That's the only thing I can think of that doesn't make me seem completely retarded.  Anyway, cactiradio.com is on the new host!  I'm going to start working on my Jason page right now.

Now I'm wondering if he would be able to complain to my domain registrar and get them to shut down the domain because it points to so-called slanderous content about him.  I'm with godaddy.com for domain hosting for cactiradio.com.  He's never complained to our registrars before, so maybe that's a stupid thing to worry about.  If he can, though, any ideas on what registrar wouldn't care about his legal threats?  I want to be prepared with a registrar to move to if that happens.

I honestly see no way shape or form he could complain to a registar about your domain name at all. I remember back in the 90's that some people were ahead of the curve and bought up the domain names for various states and then slapped porn all over them and charged the states shit loads of cash for each domain name. If a state government had to pay the price to a squatter when their state sites were pure porn, I wouldn't imagine Jason being able to throw a pile a shit any where in relation to a website address indicating him at all.

Far as I can tell, you're safe.

Why don't you host you own site? you lazy, cheap, baster, that is why you're my hero.

On what, my home connection?  If I did that, he'd call up my ISP and try to get them to take down my site.

I know nothing about anything. How dose your host get internet in the first place? So for example if your host doesn’t comply to this guy's complaint, his going to go to your host's ISP? Who is the person in line that is going to bitch slap this person.

That was then, this is now. If the US government wants your US hosted domain taken down, they'll take it down. No due process needed. I'd suggest buying a different TLD. One that isn't hosted in the US (like .me or something). That's what Demonoid did.

And not to mention, seeing as this guy changed his name legally, wouldn't that forfeit any claim he had to his previous name? More or less that'd be like taking the name Harry Potter and then getting pissed when someone used your previous name to link to anything. But in regards to the seizure of websites and domain names, I understood that much and that on a state level and Government level a lot has changed. But again with this simpleton of a man trying to hide the fact that he looks up kid porn in his spare time, I wouldn't imagine him having much sway over a domain name at all.

Let me reiterate my statement: I mean he, in full, shouldn't have much sway over a domain name. I know companies like Fry's have been rather large cock suckers when it came to using any sort of name relating to Fry, like french fry, for a website address.
