Jump To Comment: 1Of course, not all the documents are unsealed, just having these makes it much easier to see what happened. There are a few big questions.
It's now pretty clear that Rackspace [ http://www.rackspace.com ] lied about the nature of the legal papers they were served with, they seized hardware they were not asked to seize, they refused to share information with their clients on factious legal grounds. Given their practices and the assumption that they'd act the same in the future, i strongly recommend against anybody hosting at rackspace. Just think, you get a dmca request about copyrighted material and rackspace just takes your box offline, refusing to say who and what requested it, maybe they'd get ambitious and even delete the offending content, and give it back to you a week later with no explanation. If you care about your servers, don't host at rackspace, or it's sister company serverbeach.

----====----
A number of documents relating to the seizure of the Indymedia (and BLAG) servers in Rackspace’s London data center have been unsealed by the U.S. government. I haven’t reviewed the documents yet, but here they are (interspersed with some gratuitous images). Check this blog’s archives (the Past link) to find out more history. The boxes were shutdown in October 2004.
