>But reading about people having their servers deleted in the middle of the night on a Sunday (Berlin time) and all data wiped immediately, with no recurse, does sound a bit aggressive.
There are several comments under this thread from people reporting essentially that happening to them.
maybe read again: the other posts mention accounts being denied before anything is created, or customers being informed up front and given lead time to move.
OP claims everything got immediately wiped without warning. That would be against Hetzner's own TOS.
OP also doesn't elaborate further, and is posting this in a position where he has to explain his own downtime of multiple days. Make your own judgmenent what is realistic here
