Question after reading this new article : https://www.dutchnews.nl/2024/01/criticism-as-dutch-domain-registry-plans-move-to-amazon-cloud/

My current preferences :

Not more expensive than two euros a month
Whois information cloaking
Not profiting from some Pacific Island money deal
Privacy friendly

Edit : Found a spreadsheet by EFF from 2017 which gives some insights : https://www.eff.org/wp/which-internet-registries-offer-best-protection-domain-owners
