+TL;DR:
+Looking to migrate cloud service providers cause Vultr looking to havest everyone's data >:P
+
+## Vultr
+For clarification their [Terms Of Service](https://www.vultr.com/legal/tos/) last modified date states: "January 8, 2024";
+- it's assumed that the date has yet to be updated.
+
+<br/>
+
+Vultr's new TOS (starting at [Section 12](https://www.vultr.com/legal/tos/#tos_12)) contains clauses that claims ownership of ALL user hosted content under a commercial "non-exclusive, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, fully paid-up, worldwide license"...etc.
+- which is pretty ridiculous.
+
+Based on the current state of the world, we're gonna assume this is for AI. Either way even if it's not, we're jumping ship.
+
+
+## Programming.Dev
+Based on internal discussion we're currently looking into migrating to either Hetzner or Scaleway.
+- we'll provide confirmation on which one we've chosen and when we'll migrate once we've figured out the pros and cons of either.
+
+Please consider [donating here](https://github.com/sponsors/snowe2010/) as programming.dev is run by volunteers and your support is crucial to keeping our site sustainably ad-free!

+Your contributions are greatly appreciated and will help us cover essential costs such as server hosting and (currently) cloud migration🤗
