It looks like the second coming of Spyhide was a short-lived one, with the infamous spyware now truly done and dusted.
As reported by TechCrunch, the spyware’s back-end server, which survived the first shutdown intact (and was the reason why the app was able to continue operating as it has), was taken offline earlier this week by its web host, Hetzner. Apparently, the client violated its terms of service.
“In addition, we have terminated the customer’s server contract in due time,” Christian Fitz, a spokesperson for Hetzner, told TechCrunch.
