          The kind that did a cost analysis of buying their own hardware and running costs vs the cost of a VPS. Or the kind that doesn’t have good uplink bandwidth and wants to share with family and friends.

            You would have to be a fucking moron of the highest order to upload tons of illegal content to a cloud based server.

              As opposed to keeping it at home? 🙂 How is it any worse? If anything it can be better, there are some VPS services that attempt to preserve your privacy to some extent.

              You can have a perfectly legal collection, not give anyone else access and still be affected just because you use a particular host provider.

            Yeah and it was banned for being heavily used by awful criminals. Probably not a big deal to switch hosts even if you didn’t self host for some reason
