-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Hey all, the second abuse ticket reached Contabo yesterday about my service. They now threaten to take down the server when the next ticket arrives so I had to shutdown the Exit Relay (I will reconfigure it as normal relay tomorrow). I requested to have a phone call with the Contabo Abuse department to figure out a solution because Germany now provides the legal grounds to operate a tor relay with (little to) no liability. If I find a solution with Contabo I'll keep you updated. ~~~Markus Sent with ProtonMail Secure Email. ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ Original Message ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ On Wednesday, 19.

After a little search through my mails I found out that Contabo shuts down all services within 24h if there is no reply. That kinda sucked because I run some private services on this machine (different ip).
No surprise there, seehttps://contabo.de/agb.html §5 (4). All ISPs I have had business dealings with do this to counter abuse, with Hetzner reducing the reaction time before shutdown depending on the number of abuse complaints, down to 4h.
Contabo's mail claimed that a 30€ fee would be due in order to cover their work for disabling and enabling the server.
Sounds like scare tactics to me, but like you wrote, that's nonsense.
