The Pirate Bay founder has launched a new service to register domain names anonymously: https://njal.la/. You can sign up using XMPP+OTR and pay in BTC. The company buys the domain and then gives you the usage rights.

Seems useful mainly for people worried about content takedowns.

Thoughts?

@bcrypt If certain content is illegal and a (federal) takedown is requested, then someone somewhere will be responsible for it, imo.

so IF the content is taken down, I wonder how anonymous the owner will stay (depends on severity of content, of course.)

but, the overall concept looks kinda smart..
