No. This is not true. Hetzner is fully owned by a German company.

And it wasn't true in 2022.

Do you have a source for this? First time I am hearing about that one. The German hosting CEO circle is pretty intimate and I gathered that Martin Hetzner is still around.

You might be confused with their new-ish US datacenter? Hetzner is still European-owned.

Pretty sure this is wrong. On their website [1], the "about us" page mentions a GmbH and an Oy

- Hetzner Online GmbH, Germany

- Hetzner Finland Oy, Finland

I don't find anything about that - I think it's not true.

This is simply incorrect.

Uhh, can I get a source on this? I can not find a single mention of this anywhere and it seems the company is still independent and German.
