I haven’t done any extensive looking at his situation specifically, but your link is more confusing than clarifying. He originally said his access was revoked and all his data deleted, but in your linked post it says his access to was revoked, but his server is still running. Is he saying that his VM still exists, the OS still running, but someone logged into the OS and specifically deleted all of his data leaving the server intact? That doesn’t sound likely, so I don’t understand what his situation is.
Perhaps the billing or perhaps the server is still responding to public remote requests (just not private authenticated administrative ones). Not enough data to form a conclusion, but enough to know things aren’t adding up yet to agree with his conclusion.
But he said he was paying: https://mastodon.de/@ErikUden/113930315726322526

Yeah that didn’t make sense to me either. Sounds to me like just because the billing is still running he concludes the server still runs as well.
