Offshore.CAT is a compiled list of the real & genuine, along with the bad & garbage offshore services that we have either used/have had experience with in the past.

We publish these reports because I'm tired of getting asked what hosting they should use.

Offshore.CAT is not affiliated with any of the listed websites, our website takes zero responsibility from illegal or unethical usage. All informations are exposed as-is and might be not up to date if something recently changed.

A Community-driven, FLOSS-licensed Wiki documenting unsolicited requests, metadata leaks, and privacy-invasive features in applications. Privacy is a complex topic, and can be very context specific. I, NetNauseam, believe the best approach to privacy is to simply stop all applications from leaking data and metadata to and through the network.

All information in this repo should be viewed as an opinion, not a fact, and I do not claim your privacy will be improved in any way by following any of these recommendations. These are complex topics with many edge cases and any guarantees are difficult, if not impossible, to make.

BookWyrm is a platform for social reading! You can use it to track what you're reading, review books, and follow your friends. It isn't primarily meant for cataloguing or as a datasource for books, but it does do both of those things to some degree. With ActivityPub, it inter-operates with different instances of BookWyrm, and other ActivityPub compliant services, like Mastodon and Pixelfed. This means you can run an instance for your book club, and still follow your friend who posts on a server devoted to 20th century Russian speculative fiction. It also means that your friend on mastodon can read and comment on a book review that you post on your BookWyrm instance.
