So, if I may ask, for the small time host, where and with whom do people consider things to be... "reasonably" secure?
I'm less concerned about catastrophic physical destruction than I am about e.g. the Swiss equivalent of a national security letter / remit /warrant / whatever. Physical security is nice with respect to securing the physical hardware from unwanted access.
I used to manage a site that did nothing nefarious, but that did accumulate some rather personal discussions.
As I've considered whether to do so again, I've wondered where the hey I would / should host it, these days.
We always policed fairly strongly, including to e.g. removing copy/pastes of full news articles. The place was never about "law breaking". But I don't want to facilitate Agency X, BigCo Y, or SocialScum Z in their efforts to flesh out personal profiles from the server end, nor to throttle "reasonable" conversation.
I suppose the answer is "nowhere", these days. But maybe there is still a relatively "next best thing".
