Sure, you have the right to manage your servers however you like... and I have the right to unfairly use you as a proxy for my rage at everyone who has ever broken the Internet's global nature to make their server log files a little less noisy.

    It's not just log files - I was running a bad version of some software and suddenly my VPS was cryptomining and they tried to export common config directories. They got nothing and I cleaned it up but I'm not letting my VPS join a botnet and attack others. If the side effect of that is that Nigerians cannot read my person blog or access my self hosted services with 30 users I think this is ok.

    I'll happily accept your ire as I also wish the internet was generally safer and more open.
