I believe the point here is that they claim that they care about security, while their Icelandic VPS hosting provider can just dump the host server memory, which would include the encryption keys.


Then can’t we say that? “If they truly cared about security they wouldn’t use a VPS”. It just rubs me the wrong way the way it’s worded.


Yes, I should have been clearer. Sorry.


This is a good point. We are moving to a dedicated server to resolve this issue.


Nice :)

You probably know this, but anyway. If you're setting up FDE with dropbear on a remote server, it's best to build the installer on the machine.
