Hosting that stays out of your editorial business.

What "free speech hosting" actually means here

Free speech hosting is not a legal loophole — it is a policy choice backed by law. Cyberheat operates in the United States, the strongest speech-protection jurisdiction on earth. Under the First Amendment, 47 U.S.C. §230 and the DMCA's §512 safe harbor, infrastructure providers are not the publisher of their customers' content — and at Cyberheat, we act like it.

That means we do not monitor what you host, we do not editorialize, and we do not take services offline because someone emailed us an opinion about your opinion. Action requires a valid court order, or content that is unlawful under U.S. federal or New Mexico state law — full stop.

The legal ground we stand on

• First Amendment. The United States protects categories of speech — political, religious, offensive, unpopular — that many other jurisdictions regulate. Hosting in the U.S. means your lawful content is shielded by that tradition, and our contracts reflect it.
• 47 U.S.C. §230. Intermediaries are not liable for third-party content. We are a conduit: we move packets, we don't publish them.
• DMCA §512. Copyright claims follow the statute — notice, counter-notice, repeat-infringer policy. We honor valid process and nothing beyond it.
• Compulsory process only. A subpoena gets an answer; a complaint form gets a pointer to our AUP. Where the law allows, we notify you before producing records.

Who hosts with us

Independent media and newsrooms, political campaigns across the spectrum, forums and imageboards with user-generated content, Tor and VPN operators, whistleblower and leak-mirror projects, podcast and video publishers, religious organizations, and ordinary businesses that simply don't want a landlord with opinions. If your content is lawful, your politics are your own business.

Built to survive pressure

Deplatforming attacks are rarely legal letters — they're DDoS floods, payment processor pressure and social-media pile-ons. Our answer is infrastructure that doesn't flinch: always-on DDoS detection and mitigation across every edge port, a 2 Tbps backbone across 15+ carrier-neutral facilities on two continents, and settlement in BTC, LTC, USDC or USDT for customers who want it. Your site stays reachable while the complaint queue fills up.

Where we draw the line

Free speech has legal limits and we respect them exactly — no more, no less. Illegal content (CSAM, terror material support, true threats), network abuse (spam, DDoS origination, hijacked prefixes) and copyright infringement under valid §512 process are prohibited and enforced. Everything else — including content that is controversial, offensive or hated — is permitted. The full list is in our Acceptable Use Policy.
