Currently, I only have only bandwidth & connection notifiers. Each VM is monitored for the network stats. I don't want to filter any traffic right now (like the initial BSDBoxy project, where people started to spam).

The initial idea of BoxyBSD is to provide a value especially to newcomers and people who can't afford things like this but should have a possibility to learn. Out of the Fediverse, e.g. on X (where I have my biggest follower base), many people are interested in such things but can't afford it. They're often from India or Africa. I don't want to generalize it here in any way, but bringing this up because of verification methods. While I could solve phone, sms or even postcard verification for more or less for free in Europe, everything out of Europe would take much time, more efforts and some money.

My next idea was a dummy payment by PayPal. PayPal accounts are well verified (unless they're overtaken and compromised). A dummy payment of 0,10 USD could do it. But I'm not quite sure if I want to deal with such data, even when not storing them and using them only for one-time verification. From a technical perspective this could be easily done with PayPal's API, but dealing with real names, addresses and financial data requires a different data policy and some other things. Honestly, I'm not even sure if this could be done on as "donation" base or if I have to deal with the tax office in that case.

TL;DR I need some time to get more details about that but currently I don't want to deal with any of these things and highly try to avoid getting sued for any mistakes I could potentially do when dealing with such things. And that's the sad point where things get complicated...
