Hey, what is a recommended vps that is privacy friendly. I am using it for web and database hosting. Digitalocean, and the other top publicized vps require so much info. Want to move away from them. Also, what is a good domain hosting service? I usually go with prokbun for their crypto payment methods, but anyone know any better ones regarding privacy. Thanks!

For VPS, I wouldn’t know, you still have to trust them to not look into your disks data.

I personnally use OVH for VPS if you wanna know.

For Domains, Porkbun is the way to go, it’s just awesome.  
That said, Porkbun uses DNS Cloudflare, I didn’t test myself but AFAIK, CAA is bypassed by Cloudflare, they don’t take CAA into account.

So, personnally, I use a combination of Porkbun for domains and deSEC for DNS.

deSEC’s UI is terrible, but the DNS in itself works like a charm, it’s fully PowerDNS compliant, so you kinda have every records you want.

Appreciate the response! I will stick with porkbun then, and for vps I am stuck.

What is your reasoning on choosing a ovh for your vps? What are thr pros and cons? Are the privacy friendly?

Idk, I just know OVH, GrapheneOS uses OVH servers, but I have no arguement at all.  
They are cheap, and it works well, I don’t tend to chose VPS for privacy tbh. I could’ve use Google that it would have been the same to me.

I mean, whatever provider you use, it’s literrally having a computer at their home sooo…

So, not that I’m doing anything illegal. Do you think they all are subjectable to getting seized?
