And they should be shunned by everyone. We should all be naming and shaming such providers and those of us with any conscience at all will avoid using them. This is the only way to stop the tsunami of bad actors.
Or you could just choose a strong password / disable password auth? Why would DO side with anonymous abuse reporters over their customers?
Though strong passwords or preferably ssh keys are important, there will always be servers with weak passwords.
And DO doesn’t have to side with individual abuse reporters. If they cared, they could spend a fraction of an hour setting up the knock-knock software on one of their own servers, and generate their own list of abusive IPs. They just don’t care.
