Sebastian,

Thanks for this, indeed it would appear the VM is running in OVH data
centers.  However, I do not have a service agreement with OVH and thus I
believe _I_ am not breaking one.

My service agreement is with "pulseservers.com", a small provider who is
fully aware that I am running an exit node on their VPS (I read the
service agreement and even double-checked with them, they recommended a
reduced exit policy).

It is, of course, possible that pulseservers.com is in breach of their
service agreement with OVH.  I suspect it is also possible that
pulseservers has a reseller-oriented service agreement with OVH that
allows this.

My inclination is to let sleeping dogs lie, however I am happy to act on
wisdom from folks on this list.

- Colin
