Why is it so damn hard to find truly DMCA ignored hosting these days?

Why is it so damn hard to find truly DMCA ignored hosting these days?

I mean, a genuine 100% DMCA (don't give a damn about dmca complaint) type of hosting service.

Even on BHW, it's becoming difficult.

Whenever we try to discuss this, even when we're not hosting anything illegal (mod APK sites, which pretty much everyone is doing), these hosting providers advertise themselves as DMCA-ignored, but the moment a complaint comes in, they start bending and shaking.

Is "DMCA ignored" just a marketing term these days, or are there actually hosting providers that genuinely offer 100% DMCA ignored hosting?

I'm not talking about the usual "Okay, first we'll look into the complaint" blah blah blah.

That's not what we're looking for.

We need the kind of hosting provider that basically says,

"DMCA complaint? Nah, we don't give a fuck."

That's what I mean by truly DMCA ignored hosting.

Take hosting in third-world countries. They don't care at all.
I have several VPSs in Ukraine; they forward me letters from the DMCA, but they don't respond to them.

That's the exact problem I've faced. I think you don't even notice about this with Ukraine hosting services.

The DMCA ignored hosting provider I'm currently using worked perfectly fine for years.

But that stability lasted only until the war started.

During the last airstrike, the host went down for more than five days, and it took even longer to fully recover.

Do you realize how much damage that can cause? Lost rankings, lost sales, lost ad revenue, and potentially long term SEO damage.

Ukraine is simply too unstable for me to continue hosting there after an attack of that scale. I can't afford to put my websites and businesses at that kind of risk anymore.

Here's a life hack.
You rent a VPS (in Ukraine, for example), but it needs to be located in another country.
My server is physically located in the Netherlands, and the DMSA sends me several emails a day. The hosting company sends letters to government agencies in several countries calling for the removal of pirated content, and they all ignore them.
