    Make it into a mailserver, a tor relay, a VPN host, whatever you'd like - we do have one small request, though.

    +

    Crypto mining on capsul is currently considered obnoxious behavior, because the hashrates on our CPUs is so low and because mining crypto consumes entire processor cores that could have otherwise been shared between many dozens of other users.

    +

    In the future, if we have plentiful CPU resources, we may come out with a tier more suitable for mining - maybe a high cpu tier or similar, where each VM gets a full dedicated core and sharing them is not anticipated.

    +

    We will never snoop on your traffic or inspect what's going on inside of our customer virtual machines - we don't want to. We hope that you'll extend us a similar courtesy and try not to use too much of our shared CPU resources. Capsul is currently a shared (resource-wise) world, and we all must live in it together!

    +

    Also, mandatory: our systems exist within the USA, and as such those systems are bound by US law.
