Cutover Complete
Published at 13:17 on 19 November 2025
If you can read this, it means the site cutover is (hopefully) complete. This site is now being hosted by a server in Canada, in a server farm being run by a non-US (French) entity.
The DNS name service (for you non-geeks, that is what makes the blackcap.name part of this site’s address work) has yet to be cut over, but that is because there is about a year left on my existing contact, and I am being cheap. I already have an existing business relationship with a Canadian name registry, and if things start going south rapidly it won’t be terribly hard to cut that over.
Given the current state of affairs, I think it best remove as many dependencies on US-based organizations as possible. This is not exactly a prominent blog, but still better safe than sorry. With authoritarian bastards, you never know.
