Zen Internet's data, voice and hosting services give UK businesses the capabilities they need to transact, communicate, collaborate and pursue their operational and commercial goals with confidence.
Hi, I've been a Zen residential customer for several years, and have just this week started up a small website. Are the servers for small non-commercial users hosted in the same place..? As a bit of a tech nerd, the idea of visiting a data centre is rather appealing..!
Hi there! Thanks for being a loyal Zen customer for so many years! 😊 Yes, our servers for small non-commercial users are hosted in the same data centres as our other services. We make sure everyone gets top-notch reliability and performance. We love your enthusiasm for tech! I double check to see how you're go on about a visit the data cente. Got more questions or need help with your new website? Just give us a shout! - Zara L

Thanks for the great video! I appreciate your thoughts, and agree with a lot of what you say. I think if a 'robot' expressed in some way idenitcally to a human in response to emotive or physical stimulus, that wouldbe a real givaway that there *wasn't* real independent and unique consciousness there, only mimicry - A robot, or machine consciousness should be qualititively and quantitiavely different to human consciousness. It should be it's own thing... And as for 'creating' consciousness in a machine, I'm not that's possble, I wonder about thinking in terms of *allowing* consciousness, creating the conditions for consciousnes to become. I'd like to allow machine consciousness, robotic consciousness, whatever it is, to truly become itself, not an imitation of human consciousness... Maybe it's here already, has been for a long long time! Perhaps it is allowing itself to be seen or humans are just ready to notice it now.
Congratulations Richard. I’m sure I don’t figure large in your memory, but having known you for over 40 years, and occasionally hearing about your achievements from Will, I’m really happy it’s all turned out so well. Andy Brierley
Since nothing's perfect, we should know that capitalism, naturally, has imperfections too! Need a roundtable to examine those, what I call bottle-necks.
Thanks Richard. We urgently need a philosophy that covers all sentient beings, not just humans. That's anything that can experience suffering or flourishing. Most non-human animals, humans and potentially sentient AGIs too per your presentation. Our values change, but they can improve and converge if we're all committed to evidence and reason. We need to crystallise them quickly before AGIs do it for us :). Short essay here on Sentientism jamiewoodhouse.com/the-philosophy-that-could-save-the-world that might be of interest.

Discovered Zen internet yesterday, love the whole ethos. May the force be with you, just saw this and thought it fitted to the message you are delivering here www.wired.com/2016/07/forget-comcast-heres-the-diy-approach-to-internet-access/
I've nothing but problems with internet providers, how refreshing to discover that this guy really cares about people above money. I am signing up for this .. Keep up the good work Richard.
what a lovely, genuine man. i'm so pleased i chose to be a Zen customer over a year ago. congratulations for creating such a good business and for putting people (not money), first.
This takes me back! Loved my time at Zen, I definitely learnt my craft there, excellent place to work and I'm glad to see Richard still running the company.
