    This is the probable one.

    tech trying to ruin my server's IP reputation so that I'll stop using a private server.

    I doubt it. Big tech doesn't care.

    But they are certainly not going to do anything about the hacking attacks either.

    It could just be my lack of experience, but I feel unwelcomed by them

    Unless you count them punishing the customers of an entire IP range. They'll do that. But the hackers themselves are not hurting the big dawgs like Microsoft.
