I'm currently using Linode to host a server. After hearing about the security issues that they have been having recently on HN, I've been considering moving away from them to some other service that costs the same or less. (I'm on the lowest tier because I don't really do much with it) I'd like to still have root access to the server so I can install whatever software I feel like playing around with. Keeping the same basic performance Linode offers right now would only be a nice bonus. I just want a reliable host that I don't have to worry about my CC info being stolen from.
