But sadly i got banned for trying to download a tv show torrent with very low seeder count [old unpopular one. not downloading in india].
So everyone looking for VPS from shadow hosting, remember that they actively monitor and ban you for using torrent to download copyrighted material or tv shows, i.e. they don't practice 'looking the other way' like many other providers out there. So very good vps for other uses. But certainly not for torrent use, not even occasionally... not even once..
@rudra This is not correct - please don't misrepresent the facts. You haven't been banned. @Dynamoave you a 70% warning for 4 months. If you had been banned you wouldn't have been able to write the above post and there would have been a strike through your name. Where did you get the idea from that you have been banned? Surely not from me. Nor from Dynamo.
And PLEASE get the facts correct. The complaints came because of a main stream copyrighted movie that you downloaded to VPS 4. Which every one knows is illegal to do. The movie that you downloaded had a company that was able to track your IP when you downloaded the torrents. The Shadow Hosting TOS says not to download illegal materials with torrents. Focus is on illegal materials that have been downloaded. Torrents the logical tool of choice. Torrents seem to be synonymous with people downloading materials illegally that are licensed or copyrighted. There is a link between the two.
Not only Shadow Hosting says downloads of copyrighted material are not allowed. It's common sense and a universal rule that the downloading of copyrighted material is against the law. As far as I know most sponsors have it written in their TOS. Not only Shadow Hosting. Not all of the sponsors however mention torrents explicitly, but again torrents seem to be the logical tool of preference that is used to download copyrighted videos or music or licensed software illegally. They seem to go together.
Since we no longer have VPS 4 I am closing this review.
