Off Topic – Does DMCA Ignored Hosting Feature Protect My Content?

Hey folks, I know this might be a bit off topic, but I’ve been looking into DMCA ignored hosting and was wondering—does it actually protect your content from takedown requests? Is it truly safe or just marketing hype? Anyone here have real experience with it?

Hi Anas,

DMCA ignored hosting, offered by providers like Shinjiru or AbeloHost in countries with lenient DMCA enforcement, can protect content from takedown requests, but it’s not a guaranteed shield. While some users report reliable uptime and privacy for hosting controversial or copyrighted material, others face scams, poor support, or suspensions due to local laws or vague terms of service. The label can be marketing hype, as providers may still comply with court orders or local regulations, and risks like downtime, data loss, or legal action persist. Research reputable hosts like QloudHost or Impreza, review user feedback, and seek legal advice to navigate the limitations and ensure reliability.
