Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

This is true. I know of one that doesn’t care but I’d prefer not to out them even though a lot of people surely know already.
But how could a provider find out, if they are one that cares? Well, they could sniff all their network traffic, do some SPI/DPI on it, store those logs, and run automated analysis on them periodically.
Even then, they’re not going to do the job of, say, the RIAA or MPAA for them. So in most cases, the only way a host would find you out on their own is things like high storage usage (maybe), high amounts of commonly-pirated file types, and high usage of certain protocols (like torrent). Outside of that, probably nothing would happen until your host gets a DMCA notice.
