In my opinion, we should default to block all ads, miners, etc.. and only opt-in if it's meaningful to us. If sites go offline/broke.. so be it.
In my experience, sites that don't thrive on ad revenue, for whatever reason, put out much higher quality content and are curated to a much higher degree. Quality is used attract people and generate profit.
Sites that run on ad revenue are in the business of wasting my time for money.
Money is far less valuable to me than time, so I hate those sites with a zealous passion.

Block it all and let Adam Smith's invisible hand sort it out. WAY too much crap on the Net. Death to click-bait.

I'm kinda screwed - going to have to move - maybe MS 365 or similar.
SmarterASP.Net and other providers are great until they're not and right now they are not!

I have been using Prohosting for some 20 years, and cannot remember ever having your kind of issues. They are very reliable but they are not cheap (some $18 / month).

I really want to laugh at that but I still have got no further. I am submitting a ticket every hour to see what happens. Once I can access I'll preserve any email still on the server and move elsewhere.

maybe they are running the Intel patch on their servers. Though, I read last night that you're not supposed to run the patch now because it has bugs in it.

Do you have any articles about the real and juggernaut Jewish influence on US elections and policy or just short, pithless articles that make unsubstantiated and unverifiable claims against the Russians?
History is the joke the living play on the dead.

This was simply a link to a newsworthy item, not an "article". Take your anti-semitic rant to the Soapbox where it belongs.
