      There are plenty of options. If you value privacy, there are ‘vendors’ that accept XMR/Monero. Like njalla, incognet.io and xUID if you want .ru/.su domains. All accept XMR, and have non-KYC policies.

        Privacy is not the concern here. Rather, the threat model is censorship from western hegemony. There are legal/economic considerations (sanctions) for where the company is operating as well.

        incognet: based out of the U.S
        xUID: Unknown, seems to be advertising hard to shady operations.
        NJALLA: Nevis

        NJALLA seems to be the most promising. The only slight concern comes from 1337 LLC, the company behind NJALLA, being based out of Nevis. A quick google search shows the government there is in support of NATO-aligned power: https://www.sknis.gov.kn/2022/03/08/st-kitts-and-nevis-joins-international-sanctions-against-russia-and-belarus

          I might not understand the threat model fully, but, doesn’t “complete” privacy come with the added bonus of no censorship? If you sign up for a domain without KYC and with XMR, connected to a VPN, they would have a very hard time of proving where you are from.

          One of those listed companies wouldn’t be able to exclude you from their platform, atleast based on your physical location. They could probably exclude you for a multitude of other reasons, if you break their ToS or something.

          If it’s a question of whether or not you want to use a company, that supports the sanctions against Russia, or is a NATO country, I get that. There are not many choices then, atleast if you also want to stay somewhat private.
