  Port scanning is only allowed for rich people like censys or shodan

  They do a lot more than just scanning services and ports - they publish this information making it accessible for everyone without actively interacting with any specific target.

  However, I like Censys for being transparent about their network used for scanning activity unlike Shodan. So you could easily preventively block them.

  Also, except of commercial services doing portscans I see some legitimate researchers backed by Universities doing similar, but with way more limited scope.

  No, I don't think they offer it fully free and to everyone who asks

  Okay, Censys is very limited, but Shodan allows unauthenticated users to see what ports are open at what IPs

  Anyway, paid or not, they don't require you to verify if you control the requested IP address. The only limitation is that not everyone gets easy access to vulnerability search kind of access.

  @384_cz said: Ping sweeping and port scanning has to be allowed at least on IPv6

  abuse ignor?

  Portscan is not an abuse IMHO

  I bet you didn't consult the laws or opinions of others and just decided you can do whatever the fuck you want.

  KVM Premium XS, from @advinservers looks so promising
  In the ToS they say port scans need approval, so I am asing for it here

  You should have ask them here instead, not LET.
