that's not the point

they push to see how far they get

you would be surprised how far people can go just by complaining

they weren't successful here, but they are often successful elsewhere

just by complaining

unfortunately #russia has had some limited success harassing #hetzner in the past:

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hetzner#

however, you'll note the incident at the bottom of the incident list on wikipedia shows that hetzner has taken a new harder line towards russia

From reading that article it looks like Hetzner's priorities about Russia are finally set in a good way. Unfortunately they have a long history of employee screwups which could still be a problem.

Given that Russia has initiated a couple of low level harrassment campaigns recently (like the incendiary mail packages), it's rather likely you are right. Possibly even just because Hetzner is a German company (They got some beef with Germany and the US because, you know, weapons deliveries).

It's asymmetric: The only invest a single e-mail and the other side has all the bother.

My advice to Hetzner: Strangle that in the cradle. Otherwise you'll get flood of these complaints when the same gov.ru tries to weaponize your complaint system (also against you)
