Copyright and servers at hetzner.de

Recently there was a curious case. The site vefire.ru was a link to the video with ruTube. Rights holders ( Hervé Lemaire , the owner of the anti-piracy company LeakID) contacted hetzner and asked to resolve this issue. Hetzner has blocked the site. Agree with the caliper for a long time did not work. Now it is turned on temporarily, only to be able to move away from them. The whole story is described here .

I was excited by a similar case, the fact is that I have several servers on hetzner, I think like many Habr readers. But not only my projects are hosted there, but also projects of my clients and friends. In addition, one of the sites is filled only by visitors. What to expect? I decided to clarify this question firsthand:] And he wrote in support of hetzner:

Good afternoon! Not so long ago. Therefore, I have a question. I’m planning to use one of your servers. There are not even projects. What will happen to my server? I am ready to remove the materials copyright laws. Is it possible that my server can be banned?

I understand that not everyone knows English, so a free translation:

Recently there was a case when you blocked the site for a link to a ruTube movie that violated copyright. In this connection, I have a question. I rent a server from you and I plan to buy another one the other day, not only my projects are placed on them, but also the projects of my friends and clients. What happens if one of them places something like this? I am ready to remove such materials and deny hosting copyright infringing sites. Will my server be blocked?

The guys answered as always promptly:

If you receive a copyright material, please contact us. If you remove the material then nothing will happen. However, if you’re most likely to block the IP / server. The server will be unblocked.

And here is also a free translation:

If we receive a complaint or warning that relates to copyrighted material located on one of your servers, we will contact you first to resolve this issue. If you remove the material, then nothing will happen. However, if you cannot respond within 24 hours, we will most likely block the IP / server. As soon as you remove the material we unlock the server.

Sorry for the translation, not quite formulated exactly, but the idea conveyed.

In any case, a precedent has been created, and it looks more like burning a car for parking in a wrong place. Watch for content.
