Anonymous Site Registration
OK, what's the best way to put up a website anonymously? Let's assume that it has nothing to do with national security...the Feds aren't interested. BUT, let's assume that the existence and/or content of the website would probably direct a decent amount of law-suits. Presumably there's no way to hide the ISP from the world, but one should hopefully be able to hide oneself and make legal action basically useless. Egold + fake address for registering agency seems a little problematic. And there's the question of updating the site... -TD

Tor? It's not immune from traffic analysis, but it's nearly the best you can do to hide the server's location/isp from clients.

Hosting in a country that would laugh at lawsuits, like Sealand?

You can try, but good physical anonymity for commerce is difficult unless you construct a fake identity good enough that you can use it to open bank accounts... without leaving any compromising fingerprints that your bank can turn over to the authorities.
And there's the question of updating the site...
Tor+rsync? -- Unable to correct the source of the indignity to the Negro, [the Phoenix, AZ public accommodations law prohibiting racial discrimination] redresses the situation by placing a separate indignity on the proprietor. ... The unwanted customer and the disliked proprietor are left glowering at one another across the lunch counter. -William "Strom" Rehnquist, 1964-06-15

i2p is another possibility.

Assuming you want your own SLD name, yes. But if you can be satisfied with a third-level, there are a lot of domains at freedns.afraid.org that will let you tag on a subdomain with just a registration (and you can probably supply a @dodgeit.com address). Then just add a web forward pointing to the Tor gateway. -- Roy M.
