So here's a fun little project I've been running — got a cloud VPS from Hetzner for like €4/month, it actually works for my reverse proxy setup. But they went dark for 3 weeks, no tickets answered, node down. I posted about it on my blog, named them, and now I got an email from "their legal team" demanding I take it down or face "defamation proceedings."
Is it okay to name bad hosts here? I thought warning others was the whole point of communities like this. My config for reference, nothing fancy:
server {
listen 80;
server_name lab.example.com;
location / { proxy_pass http://10.0.0.5; }
}What's the etiquette? I don't want to get sued over a €4 VPS.
