Named after the Orwell novel, 1984 has grown into Iceland's largest hosting provider since 2006, with an explicit civil-liberties bent. Its Icelandic jurisdiction sits outside the 5-, 9- and 14-Eyes alliances and the company has a stated policy of warning customers when it receives a legal inquiry unless a gag order forbids it. It accepts Bitcoin and Monero alongside ordinary cards, and covers shared hosting, VPS, domain registration and a long-running free DNS service, all on 100% renewable energy. It is a smaller operation than the mainstream giants so pick it when jurisdiction and ethos outweigh raw scale for you.
