DN&P Registrar of choice for a website that may cause controversy?

[Haner]

I'm not interested in your insults; all you've done is bluster without providing any credible evidence. You haven't backed up your original claims with even questionable sources, which I might have expected. It's clear that no material exists to justify labeling the following organizations as "most corrupt":

The Southern Poverty Law Center, which is dedicated to tracking and combating hate groups, including successfully pushing for the KKK to be banned from platforms like PayPal.
The Anti-Defamation League, which speaks for itself.
The Wall Street Journal, known for tackling controversial subjects and reporting honestly on key issues, often against popular opinion.
Govinfo.gov, which is a legitimate government resource—put away the conspiracy theories.
It seems evident that:

A) You may not be familiar with these publications. B) You’re employing debate tactics reminiscent of Trump, relying on attacks rather than informed arguments, showing a lack of understanding of the very topics you’re disputing. C) Possibly all of the above.

Your assumptions about me are completely off. I'm likely older and more experienced than you, and thus better informed.

As for being “unnecessarily aggressive,” that label stands. It takes a certain mindset to react so intensely over a factual statement, making yourself look foolish in the process.

It’s also ironic that you’re accusing others of spreading propaganda and hoaxes while defending a platform known for such content.

For further reading, consider these sources:

The Huffington Post on Gab
The Associated Press on related issues
Mother Jones
NPR on tech firms and far-right websites
I could go on, but I think that’s enough for now.

You're acting really arrogant, like your education makes you superior. Maybe Reddit's a better place for that kind of attitude.

The best option is to use Russian or Chinese registrars, or Epik. ccTLDs tend to be more secure.

Any .com or .net domains can be seized depending on the content!

Here are some options:

securednet.su
bpw.sc
flokinet.is
epik.com (good for controversial sites)
njal.la

It all depends on how controversial the domain is. A good registrar can't control the registry (the governing authority). If Verisign decides a .com domain is problematic, you'll lose it no matter which registrar you're using.

I have political intentions for the domain, so I need to register it with a provider that won’t cave under pressure if authorities come knocking.

Thanks for the info about Gab's domain being registered with Epik. That’s useful to know.

Sorry to bump an old thread, but I’m also looking for a free speech-friendly domain registrar and web hosting service. Based on my research, it seems like overseas companies are usually the best option. Here’s my personal list so far:

Eranet.com (Based in Hong Kong, and according to WHOIS, 8kun.top is a customer)
Epik.com (A warning about Epik: The new CEO seems incompetent, and there are reports of the company being involved in money laundering. Some users have had trouble cashing out domains they’ve sold or even had their domain registration fees taken without receiving access to their domains. They’re reportedly under investigation by the Washington state attorney general. There are big discussions on namepros.com about this, so be cautious.)
Njal.la (Founded by the creator of Pirate Bay, but recently, they've been removing domains after receiving DMCA notices. I’ll update this when I find the thread that mentions it.)
NiceNic (A China-based registrar, but they seem to have poor reviews.)
EasyDNS (Their domain prices are high, but they seem okay as a web host. Many people who left Epik transferred their domains here.)
OrangeWebsite (Based in Iceland, which has strong freedom of speech laws. They’ve hosted controversial sites in the past, including some Neo-Nazi sites.)
Reg.com (Based in Russia, not much information, but Russian hosts generally seem less affected by online mobs.)
1984.hosting (Another Icelandic company that supports free speech, but their hosting is expensive like OrangeWebsite’s.)
PRQ.se (Probably the best option if you can’t find anyone else.)
I know someone mentioned NameSilo, but after checking their terms of service, I noticed they’re almost identical to what NameCheap or GoDaddy have. Personally, I wouldn’t trust them.

This list isn't exhaustive, but as you can see, hosting with overseas companies seems to be the safest bet. US-based companies are way too influenced by online mobs.

They can not only take your domain, but also sue you.
