Sign in Deploy a server

SporeStack, comparedNo account is a real idea. The disk still sits somewhere.

SporeStack removed the account entirely: you pay, you get a token, the token runs a server for as long as it is funded. As an answer to "what do they know about me" it is the strongest on this page, and it leaves one question open.

What they are genuinely good at

  • No account, no email, no password — an idea most privacy hosts talk about and this one shipped.
  • Bitcoin and Monero as the only way to pay, which keeps the model honest.
  • Open tooling and an API that treats the server as disposable, which is the right shape for the threat model.

What we publish that most do not

  • Every price, including bare metal, GPU by the second and colocation.
  • A signed warrant canary, a quarterly transparency report and the inventory of records that exist.
  • Mitigation on before an attack starts, and an SLA that credits itself from the incident record.

Two different questions, and each of us answers one

SporeStack answers "what does the supplier know about me" with nothing, and that is genuinely the best answer available. This estate answers it with an email address and a password hash, which is worse.

The other question is "who holds the disk, and what happens when somebody complains about what is on it". A reseller answers that with the underlying provider — a company with an ordinary abuse desk and an ordinary obligation to the law where it is registered. Anonymity at purchase does not travel to the rack.

Where the models genuinely differ

A token that expires is the right shape for something short-lived. It is the wrong shape for a business: no invoice, no balance to run down, no continuity if you lose the token, and nothing to appeal to if the underlying provider suspends it.

Here the account is anonymous but real: a balance, a service record, an engineer who answers, and an acceptable use policy two prohibitions long that belongs to the company holding the hardware.

What we cannot match

We ask for an address, because an address is how somebody is told their server is about to lapse. SporeStack does not, and for a certain threat model that is simply better. It is worth saying so on our own page.

Questions people actually ask

Could you drop the email address?

Not without dropping the ability to warn somebody before a service expires, or to let them recover an account. What we can do is publish exactly what the address is used for and what a valid order would produce, which the law-enforcement guide does.

Is a disposable server safer?

For some things, yes, and nothing here argues otherwise. For anything that has to stay up, an SLA and a named entity holding the hardware are worth more than a shorter lifetime.

Buy theirs instead if

  • The threat model is "nobody should be able to connect this server to me", and a disposable token is exactly right for it.
  • The server is short-lived by design and an SLA would be meaningless to you.
  • You would rather hold no relationship with a supplier at all than hold an anonymous one.

That list is here because a comparison that cannot name a reason to buy the other one is an advertisement. If any of those three is you, they are the better buy and this page has done its job.
