I run one relay with OVH and one with DigitalOcean. Both relays are
non-exit. I also have another VPS with OVH unrelated to Tor. This makes
me uneasy because I, too, paid one year in advance. DigitalOcean seemed
more welcoming of Tor when I contacted them about it. Both have
policies that do not prohibit Tor. If they shut down a non-exit node,
I would contact my credit card company if they don't offer a refund.
