antivirus companies consider the service to be a botnet #7

Some botnet owners seem to use onion gates like onion.gq to connect infected machines to the master of the botnet which is located in onion. Some other people report this:

That is why my server serving service onion.gq was suspended again yesterday.

Does somebody know abuse resistant ISP to host it?

Another approach I want to try is adding JavaScript puzzle on confirmation page to make it harder to connect from non-browser HTTP agents (like botnet agents).

  1. Why not add an option to deny non-GET request, and use it? If your public service allow POST request, bad people will use your service for C&C server(malware).
  2. For VPS candidate: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/GoodBadISPs

And please don't do it. If you're using Tor, you'll notice many Cloudflare websites show captcha instead of content. And many people who use Tor didn't enable Javascript. Take a look at "onion.link". They serve .onion webpage content without Ads nor Captcha.
