Gab's new hosting provider, has just pulled our hosting service. They have given us until 9am on Monday to find a solution. Gab will likely be down for weeks because of this.

I suspect that there's more at play than censoring conservatives. I'm thinking that its about controlling the flow of information, specifically to ensure that any potential anti-war sites don't get a voice.

Note I've not been on gab apart from following one link once.

in this game you should have your next 3 hosts ready to roll, preferably with your next one with the site already installed and ready to upload the current database.
IMO you should publish all the details and every bit of correspondence as soon as you're off your old host including names and email addresses of staff you corresponded with, some of us might take action if we feel they did wrong. There's more than one user on here wielding a lot of power in that respect.

I your business is solely internet based then a plan should already be in place.

Hosts can have their own issues effectively shutting down for unrelated reasons.

Its called planning.

I have 2nd-ary and tertiary suppliers for all my critical parts needed for me...
