I hear that new porkbun accouts might need to submit ID so thank goodness I made an account before that

I use PorkBun. I didn’t have to upload any id, but I pay with a credit card so they do have my name and whatnot. They have a pretty decent API to manage whatever you need.

If you’re in the U.S. you can use Privacy.com. No need to ever give name, address, or real credit card info ever again. It’s pretty nice.
Who is behind it and how do you know they are trustworthy? I wasn’t able to find much info but it seems it’s just some company (not a non profit / charity or anything). I know they have paid plans but it seems they also have an incentive or at least an ability to sell your purchase data?

No clue, but trusting one company with your info, rather than every company reduces your attack vector massively. My name, address, credit card info don’t have x chances of getting stolen or sold, but only 1.
Yeah I guess so, but every site seems to be a Shop App now so it’s hardly more than one company anyway 😅
