Traffic from Iceland is still relatively expensive. However we could host some 
machines in other places where we interconnect on internet exchanges. We are 
still distracted by suing Visa due to Wikileaks case but that doesn't stop us 
doing good business.

I believe we have a couple of users running tor on their VM's. Not sure if exit 
or not. But the first law enforcement request (identify the owner) was already 
in (however not in proper format and from the wrong country so we didn't have 
to answer it anyway. They couldn't even read whois entries correctly or use 
traceroute to get an idea where the server really is).
