Banned Book Archive Hosting in Press-Freedom Jurisdictions
Books banned in specific jurisdictions for political, religious or social reasons are typically lawful elsewhere. Digital archives preserving access to such works fulfill an important cultural function. AnubizHost provides EU offshore hosting where these archives operate under press-freedom protections.

Banned books and copyright distinction
This page covers books that are lawful (still in copyright or public domain) where they are archived, but banned in specific other jurisdictions. We do not host pirated current commercial literature; we host archives that operate either with rightsholder permission, under fair use, or with public domain works.
Examples of legitimate archives
Projects like Project Gutenberg, Internet Archive's book section, and various university-affiliated archives publish public-domain works. Some specialized archives publish works under fair-use or license. We host operations of this kind, with documentation of provenance.
Hardware
Static text archives are small. Romania Standard VPS at $34.99/mo handles many hundred thousand titles in text form. Image-heavy archives or facsimile preservation need more storage; we offer 8 TB SATA add-ons at $25/mo each.
Pricing
$34.99 to $189/mo plus storage add-ons. Related: bulletproof hosting, banned art, academic archive.
