Here's a good one... a host that requires the CUSTOMER to take out liability insurance! WTF?

... and before you think this is for customers who colocate and maintain their own equipment, this applies to everyone... including customers who never see the server they lease, the data center or possibly even the country the host is located in.

The host's contract requires the customer to (independently) obtain 3 different types of liability insurance, with a minimum cover level of one million Euros.

They can request a certificate of insurance at any time and if the customer cannot produce proof within 10 days it would presumably be considered a violation of contract.

Better not load the wrong URL on your fully managed server, it may catch on fire and destroy the data center.
