The Northern Virginia Internet Access Collective (NVIAC) is a 501(c)(3) tax exempt non-profit self-hosted internet service provider. We offer some basic Internet services like email hosting, web site hosting and domain registration.
nova.org is a pet project of Paco Hope. Want to get involved behind the scenes? Help secure a real service that serves real people? Get some real attack data by watching us get attacked over and over? Reach out to Paco on mastodon, Signal, or email.
Want to run your own email domain, web sites, etc.? Not bothered that this is hosted in the US? take a look at what we offer.
Some folks have email, web sites, and other services directly from nova.org. (If you run your own domain, you're not a member of nova.org.) These services are here:
We are proudly ad-free and AI-free. We make no revenue on ads (nor do we display them) and we do not use AI services or offer services to AI companies.
