Two amendments at the moment from me:

https://verelox.com does only offer a 1024 GB/month Transfer - unmetered is at about 60€/month

hukot.net - is promising 100Mbits/s - reality after a month of testing at the cheapest rate shows sometimes only 10Mibts/s if at all

Hi!

Here is a list from ExoticVPS that you can use to search for and contact various VPS hosters:

http://www.filehosting.org/file/details/558944/ExoticVPS.ods

http://www.filehosting.org/file/details/558945/ExoticVPS.xlsx

http://www.filehosting.org/file/details/558946/ExoticVPS.txt (Tab separated txt file)

Kind regards tor-node.net

I'm curious to look at this list and compare it with my own.

Could you upload the .txt of this list to a network/filepublishing service which does not require your email address?

thanks,

I think https://compass.torproject.org has all the info I need. After grouping by AS name for the United States, I decided to go with Hostwinds. They say 100Mbps unmetered for $7.50 a month, but the management page says 10TB per month.

Sometimes countries definitions of "unmetered" are like that. See the descriptive texts of ISPs who provide virtual machines or even dedicated servers for you. In iceland most if not all iceland based (legal entity in iceland, not just the servers) ISPs somehow depend on advania datacenter, and for advania in the retail, non-customized sale of their VMs and dedicated servers are very low in monthly traffic compared to the fair-use policy of the non-profit ISP I am at currently.

Fun fact, US has quite a lot of exit relays, but France holds the highest consensus weight.

Another interesting fact - the person does not share these analysis of course, or at least it's hard to get in touch currently - is that in Netherlands a very large number of relays is run by government agencies.

So how do you know that for sure ? Have they confirmed that somewhere ?

If I don't forget about to add this to my todo list, I try to get back in contact with the people and see if they have some kind of dataset they are willing to share. As far as I understood it at the end of last year, they run some kind of audit on the nodes for their own safety, to check who they can trust in their already bad situation as a group.

Iceland checking in here, I'm not sure where you're getting that information but we have quite a number of other ISP's here that offer VPS service. The problem you may be referring to is that since we're only connected by three submarine cables (two of which are effectively government owned) ip transit prices are very high. There's also different pricing schemes for ISP's vs Telecom services. -Jason

Thanks for the further information, I did not know that.

I use ISP in a very broad definition. I checked on orangewebsite, 1984, and 2 others, all pointing to advania DC. That's why I wrote "almost" and not "all".
