Why happen if I store pirated content inside my VPS? I think the answer is pretty obvious, in their TOS should say that if I do that they will BAN me without warning, but can they detect the files? Or worse, what if I download directly into the VPS with torrent or Jdownloader?
From what I understand (and based on USA laws) only if I torrent something they can BAN me, because I’m redistributing something with copyright in their servers, and I don’t only refer to games, this can apply to music, movies, etc.
It depends on provider, one thing I can tell you for certain is that most of them don’t scan your file system, it is overhead they simply don’t need.
What is likely to happen is that they’ll get sent a DMCA and if they are a company that cares about DMCA claims (I.e. OVH) they’ll shut you down, if they don’t care then that DMCA claim goes directly to the trash can and you can continue business as usual.
