Secure, sustainable cloud storage and computing.
A quiet thank you to everyone who keeps the internet running while the rest of us step away.
The best systems are the ones that don’t demand attention to prove they’re working.

Analysts warn that privacy risks, bias, and socio-economic impacts will be among the major hurdles for AI in 2026. As AI spreads, thinking only about performance and ignoring ethical and systemic issues is a path to bigger failures.

Texas AT&T customers from two major 2024 breaches have until Dec 18 to claim up to $7,500 as part of a $177 M settlement for exposed personal data. Two separate incidents in one company underline how brittle centralised data silos remain.

HP’s leadership says they’ll build AI devices that process data locally to reduce reliance on remote cloud infrastructure and improve privacy. That’s the sort of decentralized thinking that actually addresses user control and data sovereignty.

A new US executive order aims to override state AI regulations and create a federal uniform AI framework, drawing sharp criticism from both parties. When the governance debate swings between “no rules” and “one rule fits all,” nuance and sovereignty get squeezed out.

Putting servers in Europe doesn’t magically make a cloud sovereign if the provider still answers to foreign law.

This article explains the legal and technical gap between sovereignty as a slogan and sovereignty as infrastructure.

Oracle pushed back against a report claiming OpenAI-linked data centres would be delayed to 2028, saying milestones remain on track. Investors still sold off Oracle stock, showing how much market confidence now hinges on big, centralised AI buildouts — not stability or locality.

Microsoft Copilot experienced a widespread outage across the UK and Europe this week, knocking the AI assistant offline for many users. When an “AI service” goes quiet because of traffic spikes, we’re reminded how fragile central compute stacks still are.

“Digital sovereignty” gets thrown around as if it’s a setting you turn on. It isn’t.

This article breaks down what sovereignty actually means in cloud computing—law, control, infrastructure, and who can pull the plug when things get uncomfortable.

Most “cloud storage 101” pages dodge the only questions people actually care about: where is my data, and who can see it.

AI has started targeting people who can’t defend themselves: the dead.

Cybernews reports “griefbots” built from victims of violent crime and public figures, with almost no federal protection in the US for the image of the deceased unless money changes hands.

The emergency alert on your phone might depend on one company’s patch policy.

OnSolve’s CodeRED system was hit by the Inc Ransom group, leaking names, addresses, emails, and passwords while disrupting alert services that people think of as “public infrastructure.”

Your bank can have great security and still leak your data through a vendor buried three layers down the org chart.

This week’s SitusAMC breach, hitting a real-estate processor used by many of the top 20 US banks, shows how one vendor can spray customer and legal data across Wall Street.

Everyone wants an A100, fewer people can explain why.

We can explain why you shouldn't. We break down memory, bandwidth, and real workloads in plain English so you know when it actually makes sense to rent one, or when you should consider 4090s and 5090s.

Christine Lagarde just warned that Europe is “missing the boat” on AI and can’t just keep buying models and compute from abroad.

If your “AI strategy” is basically renting GPUs from the same three US hyperscalers, you’re not sovereign, you’re a high-value customer on someone else’s balance sheet.

GPU shopping in 2025 feels like filing a tax return. Our Compute blog breaks down vRAM, interconnects and pricing tiers in plain English, and shows where RTX 4090s outperform “data centre” GPUs on throughput per dollar for deep learning: buff.ly/JFO1PbR

‘Sovereign cloud’ that still answers to the US CLOUD Act is a neat trick. This piece looks at why server location isn’t sovereignty and why only 28% of people are still willing to trade personal data for “free” services: buff.ly/E7y9aMD

Hyperscalers were built for everything. AI isn’t “everything.” Compute with Hivenet focuses on one job: fast, fair GPU compute. See the differences in pricing, control, and sustainability: compute.hivenet.com/post/neocloud-vs-hyperscalers

Somewhere out there, a startup is burning cash on overpriced GPUs.

Meanwhile, on Hivenet:
4090 for €0.20/hr
5090 for €0.40/hr

Same GPUs. Smaller bill. Bigger grin.

Completely free AI code agent? The only thing cheaper than a free cloud is your privacy inside it.

We wrapped up our 10th global offsite in Milan. The focus this year was simple: ownership.
Real conversations, clear decisions, and a team that cares about the work as much as the outcome.

We also took our usual chaotic group photo. Tradition matters.

Cloud GPU pricing shouldn’t feel like deciphering a mortgage.

We made it simple:
4090: €0.20/hr
5090: €0.40/hr

Full VRAM, no interruptions, no “gotchas.”
