Singapore government doesn't allow torrenting for illegal use. (which I assume you are, unless you're looking for a legal seedbox.)
You should check hackforums instead.
Bandwidth in Singapore is real expensive for torrent traffic. Maybe you want to look for West Coast server?
Singapore for torrenting ? You'll need deep pockets for the bandwidth and have to be seeding something legal
... What even is a "legal" seedbox in the sense of the LE* community, is everyone going to continue to lie through their teeth about their habbits and keep us providers receiving numerous emails from CEGTEK ?
Legal torrenting I'm aware of, but pretty sure LE* 'customers' don't involve in:
What else could be considered legal besides either: It's free and/or open source, you have a license to distribute it and are the copyright owner, or were given the license to distribute from the copyright holder (somewhere down the line), or you are distributing something you created, well within the bounds of the copyrights of the attached/used libraries, sub-content, etc.
A hefty percentage of the torrent traffic we saw from LE* customers before closing was quickly followed by a CEGTEK complaint/DMCA takedown/seizure request and a chargeback from the 'customer' which PayPal had no choice to honour, as their bank/Visa both agreed that the service wasn't delivered. Regardless of MaxMind's premium fraud protection + calls being enabled, the customers being primarily from the US using residential connections/addresses/names that matched their PayPal accounts... etc.
You are totally right lol but who are you kidding? people aren't going to admit their true intentions because they will lose the server or will be denied from ordering one.
the only legal seedbox purpose i could come up with is helping to seed those linux distros..
you could disallow torrent in the TOS and add some auto detection for it but then you'll lose alot of customers i think?
I'd rather lose the "customers". The "customer" in this example is a person that uses your service for up to 6 months, then charges back all 6 months as an "unauthorized" purchase either via PayPal, or via their Card Company; and 99.99% of the time wins by default.
However, people don't read the ToS or AUP, and then shitstorm on LE* when they are suspended/terminated. "Muh privacy" "watching my traffic" "I got suspended" "scam host didn't deliver my seedbox lul" "fraud host tried to charge me $250 for indemnify of some hot porn i download"
Most of the above titles are legitimate (save for much worse spelling.)
Of course, every customer will do it whenever "premium" provider will try to make money from fraud.
If they're winning 99% of the time then you either need to provide better evidence , modify your TOS, or change payment processors
Working on the latter at the moment. PayPal closes the disputed when the bank/card company sides in the customer's favor; which they almost always do for Virtual services, regardless of the evidence we provider (ie: Customer ordered a service on @
If you're going to use any VPS for a seedbox, you should be using them with private torrent sites. If you do that then you're good to go.
But I guess you already know that.
Seedbox in Asia doesn't make any sense unless you have a very specific use that doesn't involve clocking ratio, bandwidth is expensive in Asia. You're better off buying a seedbox in US or EU, cheap bandwidth. Slow download to Asia but then again, this is torrents we're talking about it's not like downloading faster will make that much of a difference.
Only time I can think an Asian seedbox makes sense is when you have commercial content (eg. office software, game data) that your players need quickly and you have a target audience in Asia and fast download psychologically makes the user feel your product is a good product.
