What does /g/ think of VPS's i usually don't trust them enough to host my content, so i self host most of the time.
But a couple of days ago i discovered a service called SporeStack, which is a VPS which supports Tor only nodes, and iirc only supports payment in crypto.

You don't need an account to get a VPS there, you just pay and upload your ssh key, and you can even pay from the terminal.

I don't know is it any good? Do you know of any better VPS?

I checked their website but I couldn't easily find what virtualization software they are using. Before trusting them with anything check if they run a version of Linux full of vulnerabilities so they can share resources between virtual servers. For example, if they run OpenVZ -> kernel version 2.6.32, you better run.

need to enable JavaScript hmmmmm
upload ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub Hope you don't use that default key for anything else.

You only need Javashit if you pay through the browser, you can pay over your command line (Assuming you run a decent shell).

>>10329
Can't you just make more SSH keys?

>>10333
Indeed, however the specific one used in the example is the default name for when you generate one. It should tell you to make a unique one specifically only for use with the service. Public ssh keys can be used to track users, if used on public websites like github.

I agree they probably should write something like you just wrote, but if you aren't a complete brainlet you would know anyway, and if you were a reddit tier idiot you wouldn't care.

You actually have to be even more careful. You must use the -i option or IdentityFile configuration. If you don't the ssh server can test to see if you have the private key to the public key they suggest.
