Midphase does say they accept adult content, but they seem sort of...grudging about it. And the stuff about segregating adult sites onto a separate server, while it could be just for purposes of bandwidth management, somehow strikes me as wanting to treat the adult sites as second-class.
If I were hosting adult content, I think I'd seek out a hosting company with an attitude towards it more like Dreamhost's. And yes, I've used Dreamhost for other sorts of sites and have been happy with them.
Thanks, path. In that case there are certainly legal -- as in involving lawyers -- steps to be taken in response to actual libel. It still may well not be worth going to the trouble to respond to one schmuck on a message board.
It's hard to advise you without knowing the specifics. I assume that escort work is illegal, or at best quasi-legal, in Canada and that legal remedies to libel are therefore unattractive to you.
You might be best served by asking other clients to visit the site and rebut the accusations. I would think that one negative review against a dozen positive would have little effect.
