Echo-Host Association is a newly formed French hosting nonprofit that controls AS216388 and sells prepaid VPS, web, and game hosting. Its public evidence base includes French registry records, self-published legal notice, and routing data, but financials, customer counts, and independent leadership verification are missing. Watchpoints include AS216388 record changes, prefix shifts, and status page outages. The operator's youth and broad suspension terms create continuity risk for its users.

Echo-Host Association is a small, new French hosting nonprofit operating AS216388, offering game, VPS, and web services.
What It Does
Service offerings: Sells VPS, web hosting, game server hosting for Minecraft, Garry's Mod, Unturned, Discord bot hosting, and file-sharing services, with upfront payment.
Revenue model opacity: No public financial statements, customer counts, or contract metrics are available to verify commercial scale.
Operating Snapshot
Legal identity: Registered as an active French association (SIREN 992 958 785) since 20 October 2025, with a Paris registered office.
Infrastructure control: Operates AS216388, created 28 April 2026, originating IPv4 prefix 82.22.57.0/24 and IPv6 prefix 2a0b:4e07:e0::/48, with upstream peers AS206696 and AS34872.
Control Surface
Hosting platform: Controls the customer-facing website, storefront, support, and abuse channels, as well as service configuration.
Routing and connectivity: Manages BGP announcements for AS216388, directly affecting service reachability for all hosted workloads.
Watchpoints
Registry and prefix changes: Any modification to AS216388's RIPE records or prefix advertisements could indicate operational restructuring or instability.
Status page updates: The public status page (last updated 3 March 2026) serves as a health indicator; extended outages or domain loss would signal disruption.
Leadership verification: Confirmation of officer roles through the official French JOAFE journal would strengthen governance accountability.

Why tracked: Echo-Host matters because its generic service terms grant it broad suspension and termination rights with limited backup obligations, and its routing announcements directly affect service reachability. The organization's youth and lack of independent financial or technical audits create concentrated risk for any customer relying on its infrastructure for critical workloads.
Object role: Echo-Host Association operates a customer-facing hosting platform that sells VPS, web hosting, and game server hosting for titles such as Minecraft and Garry's Mod. It controls the terms of service, abuse enforcement, and the BGP routing of AS216388, which originates IPv4 and IPv6 prefixes via upstream peers. The operator's public surface also includes a status page and support channels.
Impact note: Any change to Echo-Host's routing announcements, registry records, or legal status could abruptly disrupt connectivity for its hosting customers. Because the operator is small and young, systemic internet impact is negligible, but localised service outages, data loss from insufficient backups, or sudden account suspensions would directly affect its paying user base.
