DMCA-ignored hosting. Your server does not move.

A copyright complaint is logged, counted and forwarded to you. It is not a strike, it is not a warning, and it does not touch the machine. Here is the whole sequence.

Four quarters of complaints, and what they changed

Every provider in this market says the same three words. Almost none publishes the removal column — which is the only number that can prove it. Latest closed quarter: 2026 Q2.

Counted on arrival rather than on resolution, and invalid notices are counted too — both choices make our own figures larger. The method is published alongside them in the transparency report.

Hour by hour

What happens to the machine, which is nothing

Elsewhere, the notice is the action. Here it is a message that gets forwarded, and the sequence below is the entire extent of our involvement.

The notice arrives

By email, in any format, citing any law. It is logged with a timestamp and a reference, and counted for the quarterly report — including the ones that are plainly invalid.

Hour 0

Your server keeps running

Nothing is suspended, nothing is null-routed, no file is touched, no rate limit is applied. There is no automated action of any kind attached to receiving a complaint.

Hour 0

You get it, verbatim

Forwarded exactly as received, headers and attachments included, to the address on your account. We add a reference and nothing else — no assessment, no advice, no warning.

Within 24 h

Nothing further happens

No counter is incremented against your account, because no such counter exists. Ten thousand notices are not ten thousand strikes; there is no threshold at which volume becomes an action.

Afterwards

Four things the slogan hides

What “DMCA-ignored” does and does not mean

The mechanism is real and worth buying. The phrase around it is sold with implications nobody can honour, and a customer who believes them is a customer we will disappoint.

“DMCA-ignored” is marketing, not a legal category

What it describes is real: the DMCA is United States domestic law, it binds providers subject to United States jurisdiction, and it contains no mechanism to compel a host elsewhere. We prefer to name the mechanism, because a customer who understands it can check it.

It does not make anything lawful where you live

Moldovan law governs us. The law where you are still governs you, and a server abroad changes who can compel the machine, never who can come after its owner. Any provider implying otherwise is selling you a problem.

Two things are still removed, without any order

Child sexual abuse material, and material organising violence against people. Both on sight, both reported, no appeal and no refund. That list has two entries and has never had a third — and copyright has never been on it.

A Moldovan court order is complied with

It is the instrument that moves a server here, and a valid one is obeyed. That route is public, adversarial and slow, which is exactly the property worth buying. Foreign judgments are not self-executing: they need mutual legal assistance first.

Before you move a service here

Four questions worth the honest answer

Two of these have answers that cost us sales. They are the two worth reading.

The legal position
Will a copyright complaint take my server offline?

No. A notice is logged, counted and forwarded to you within 24 hours, and nothing about your service changes. There is no suspension, no null-route, no file removal and no strike counter — the transparency report publishes the removal column every quarter and it has read zero since we opened.

Is “DMCA-ignored hosting” legal?

The phrase is marketing rather than a legal category. Operating a host in Moldova that does not run a United States notice-and-takedown procedure is entirely lawful in Moldova, which is where we are. It does not make infringement lawful and it does not protect you personally from the law where you live — the guide on what offshore hosting protects you from sets out that boundary in full.

What would actually make you remove something?

An order from a competent Moldovan court, properly served — and the two categories in the acceptable use policy, which are removed on sight without any order at all. Copyright is not one of them and never has been.

Will you tell a complainant who I am?

No. They are told to obtain a Moldovan court order. Even with one, what exists is an email address you chose, invoice records with no name attached, and connection metadata that is 24 hours old at most — the no-KYC page explains why nothing more was ever collected.

Check it rather than believe it

The removal column is published every quarter

Including the quarters it would have been easier to leave out. A number you can watch move is worth more than three words on a banner.
