Let us set the record straight:
We are a genuine service and already had a lot of orders which were all successfully delivered.
The ToS were a bit unfortunate. All4btc.com copied their terms of service from freenetlaw.com and we have in fact a very similar business model, so we thought we could make our lives easier and adapt the ToS. However, a wrong version of the modified ToS was uploaded to our website and the person uploading it didn't properly check the document.
Not enabling SSL was due to technical reasons, and will be solved very soon. We were not able to implement our certificates without error messages, since we host multiple projects on this server and RIPE no longer allocates IP's for individual SSL allotment. SNI was not possible due to Windows IIS7 not supporting it and with an UCC certificate we had other issues.
The rest of the points we have already solved or are in the process to do so. We use a domain anonymization and the person who posted the critique on whois did not recognize it.
However we keep wondering why people think this is a scam. Shadiness is actually not a very good indicator when looking for a scam with this kind of business model, since when operating this as a scam one would have no problems with false positives. (Contrary to Nigerian scammer model: The mails you get from African Royalty offering millions for nothing are purposely written sketchy and not because the scammers are stupid. They need to do so, in order to filter out false positives.
