jayrrome, your source is outdated and talks about an incident some years ago. It wouldn't surprise me however that the percentage of dropped sites on the hosting company you mentioned is higher than average because cheap hosting attracts those who need room for their throw-away domains for spamming and those who need lots of cheap disk- and database space for their scrapers and ODP clones.

I wouldn't blame the hosting company in the first place, but the type of customer they have.

FYI, I have some sites hosted at this hosting company, and Google ranks and traffic are better than ever.
