I don't appreciate Digital Ocean's responsiveness to abuse. They are exceptionally slow to respond as compared to even some Nigerian hosting companies.
I deal with hosts about 5 times per week that are being used as attack engines and scrapers and other nefarious things.
Usually it comes down to them being used to expand stuff and they discover that *MOST* hosts that are doing this kind of work are paid for using Stolen Credit cards and or stolen other forms of payment.
Just be careful malraux. I understand the allure of cheaper with just as capable. I switched to Google Apps because of it.
