OVH built its own network and its own data centres and includes real DDoS mitigation as standard, which very few hosts of that size do. The comparison is not about capability.

OVH will ask who you are, will take a card, and will answer a complaint through a process designed to protect OVH. That is the right way to run a company of that size and it is the whole of what people are escaping when they search for this.

France is outside American copyright law and inside a European regime with an active practice of addressing hosting providers. One company holds the estate, so one ruling reaches it. Eight companies is the structural answer to that, and it is the thing that is expensive to copy.

Good engineering, and a compliance department. What changes when the company holding your disk is answerable where the complaint is filed.
