What a real DMCA-ignored seedbox looks like
Most "seedbox" providers claim DMCA-ignored but actually forward takedowns silently. Our infrastructure is hosted in jurisdictions where DMCA has no legal standing. We receive the notices, we forward them to you as informational, but we take no action unless a local court in the server's jurisdiction issues a valid order.
Netherlands vs Moldova vs Iceland
Netherlands has AMS-IX peering (fastest European downloads) but GDPR applies at the EU level. Moldova is the cheapest and has the lowest international cooperation. Romania is a middle ground with fast EU peering and anti-retention court precedent. Iceland has the strongest legal framework but is pricier.
Recommended setup
VPS-M (120 GB NVMe) is enough for active seeding of 50-100 torrents. VPS-L (200 GB) for larger collections. Pair with rclone to offload to object storage if you need more than 1 TB of retention. Deluge, qBittorrent, and rTorrent all work — install via your favorite management UI (Swizzin, QuickBox, or raw Docker).
