Linode is now the shittiest company I've ever dealt with

Well this is fucking depressing. More of a a major incovienence than a death sentance, but still incredibly depressing. Here's hoping the next service isn't worse.

What law was broken?
No laws were broken, just more loosely worded terms of service to justify cancellation easier if a "potential issue" is reported.
 
DigitalOcean was my runner up and they're more expensive per CPU, so I'm reluctant to move to them.
The Dutch host is also quite expensive comparatively, and while they also are much stronger in protecting freedom of speech, their location would increase page load times for everyone outside of Europe. From the Philippines, my ping to their servers is about 200ms~300ms. For Melchett in the UK, it was 19ms.

I really have no problems with Linode, but their mounting incompetence and decline seems almost jet-propelled now. I have no idea how they went from the best host I've ever dealt with to flatlining in every sense in a month's time.

I'd be inclined to call their bluff and counter-sue for a laugh (although that would probably work out poorly in the short to medium term)
