      These instances are not much popular so there isn’t much evidence regarding it. Nor you have any evidence that it doesn’t.

        and only one of us posted a claim without backing it up with proof.

          Where? No one posted evidence in this thread.

          some don’t.

          But some do. You can never be sure about all of them do same. Also what if some instances are running modified version of it.

          personnaly

            Of course you can never be sure. But you cannot be sure about any local player either. Even if it is libre software, it rely on trust. Or you would have to read every piece of software used. In the same way that some software are trustworthy enough to use, some hosts are too.
