Bonjourno! I got a couple of domain names to register and I wanted to switch providers from google. I checked out a couple of the bigger ones like Cloudflare and Infomaniak but they’re all asking me to upload a government photo id for security or whatever… I figured I’d ask around here to see what yall are using. I dont need anything crazy, mostly just the registration part. Bonus points for hosting dns with an api to manage records & what not but that part isnt necessary.
EDIT: Thanks for the suggestions! I really appreciate yall; This is why I love Lemmy. I ended up going with njalla. They got me when I read tgis on their about page:
Other organisations will brag about which customers they have. We brag about not telling who our customers are.
Can you use a dummy address or a friend’s address in another country and/or sign up via a VPN to mask your location? There are companies that will open and scan your mail and make it available online so it could be a real address. But they are a little pricey. It’s likely due to UK laws not the provider themselves, so probably all reputable providers (that follow the law) may require it.
Yeah, I thought the same thing. That’s when they asked me for the photo id…
