I'm more curious than I am really in the market but I'm interested to hear if anyone has had experience with any "high privacy web hosts."

Anything that actually truly qualifies as high privacy is likely going to be offshore and only offer dedi but I'm thinking fully encrypted connectivity/order, encrypted hard-drives, some sort of highly secured backup system perhaps.

Bonus features would include, but are unlikely: payment via Western Union, no name listed on the account.

Also interested: your experiences in offshore hosting in general.

Have you looked at http://prq.se/?intl=1 ? As long as it's legal in SE they will keep your site online, they host wikileaks and a few other high profile sites (they're also the ex owners of TPB).

We are firm believers in freedom of speech, commerce, and the right to privacy and anonymity, and this is reflected both in our terms of service and in our actual actions. Unlike most providers, we will not disable your service under any circumstances unless it's either not paid for, used for spamming, DoSing or other activities harming the network, is used for publishing very obviously illegal material like child porn, or if we're ordered to by a Swedish court. We are not sensitive to pressure in the form of legal threats (we even have our own legal staff), bad press, campaigns, organized boycotts, angry mobs, etc. We host several very controversial websites, and have a spotless track record in regard to this.

We do not require knowing your name, address, etc, although it can be advantageous to have them in certain situations (and they are handled very carefully, always stored encrypted, our personnel screened throughly for trustworthiness, and can only be accessed from two dedicated workstations who like the main server also have encrypted harddrives). Neither do we require a written contract. The only thing we need to know about you to set up the service is which e-mail address that should receive the invoices. Logging is only done to the minimal extent required for trouble-shooting in case of problems, and thus we do not have any logs whatsoever of data traffic.

They look pretty great. Anyone know anything regarding their prices?

Price are listed here http://prq.se/?p=services&intl=1 it a bit expensive :roll2:

2xP3 1.4Ghz @ 128$/USD

Yes, you have to pay quite a premium, also note on http://prq.se/?p=dedicated&intl=1 they have a price for the hardware then you have to pick a data package to add on to that.

However what you could do is order a server in EU with a different provider then use PRQ's tunnel - http://prq.se/?p=tunnel&intl=1.

The Tualatin P3 are not slow cpus, I think that's reasonable pricing to be honest.
