On that topic, I recently got three Ubuntu VMs from slicehost and tried 
to connect them with IPSec, but IPSec doesn't work in that environment. 
I can't encrypt the traffic between my VMs.

Lucky I'm not a paranoid conspiracy theorist or my mind would be running 
wild with reasons why IPSec doesn't work OOTB in that environment.

So, left without encryption between my servers, I did the only thing I 
could do, which was to adjust my privacy policy accordingly:
