this is why i use http://prq.se for hosting

What's these guy's connection to The Pirate Bay? I've heard all of the following:

  1) TPB owns them
  2) Its a spin-off of TPB
  3) They currently host TPB
  4) They used to host TPB and no longer do so
  5) The two are unrelated

Does anyone know?

Why, that's pretty impressive. It's too bad they don't offer VPS, :(.

Thanks a lot for that suggestion/link. I'm looking for new dedi hosting and I really love those guys.

I'll be seriously thinking about moving to them. The most expensive combo package there is less than I pay right now. Plus, they're committed to privacy. Very very compelling.

How has your uptime been? Had any problems?

I've used PRQ for about a year, and had no major problems. There was a DDoS attack at one time that broke things for a while, but other than that I've had no problems.

I had a dedicated server that ran without any problems, and when I had a few questions it was easy to get in touch via phone, mail and IRC.

Great, that's good to hear. Thanks.
