I got some domain names to register and every place Im looking at is asking me to upload a photo id because I live in a dystopian hellscape… Anyway, I figured I’d ask around here and the selfhosted communities for some recommendations on privacy respecting registrars. I appreciate yall!
EDIT: Thanks friends, I ended up going with njalla. I really appreciate the suggestions. Stay safe out there.
I was just looking into this. My strategy was to see where privacy-conscious people actually put their money. For example, the GrapheneOS project uses Porkbun.
I now use Porkbun and have no complaints. My requirements were to be cheap, have WHOIS privacy, and support DNSSEC.
Try njal.la
I registered my domain through them, and they didn’t even ask for my name.
What are your thoughts on https://incognet.io/?
I hadn’t heard of them, so I don’t know enough to have an informed opinion. I’ll check them out.
Yeah see what you think. They look good on the surface but some elements like their encrypted email hosting are still in development.
thank you for this
