for nearly a week the hosting company told me it was some sort of network issue, and they gave me a bullshit ETA. eventually they told me there was a break in, and gave me the number to contact the detective that's handling the case. the detective tells me that he thinks it's an inside job since all the survalence equipment was taken as well.

so who should be liable for this? me or the hosting company?

Nobody steals this type of shit except the people who work there.

The pawn shop does not take webservers!

Nobody's looking in the "Penny Saver" listing to buy a web server.

Any decent crooks who broke into that place would look around and say "damn this sucks, nothing in here we can sell" and leave with nothing.
