I'm not thrilled by the execution of that campaign, but I will heartily
second its sentiments. I have had to deal with GoDaddy in a
professional context off and on for several years now, and they'd be too
expensive at half the price.
For my personal domains I use gandi.net, which was a snap decision made
by looking at the WHOIS records of several highly technical and
privacy-/rights-aware organizations I trust (The EFF, The FSF, etc). I
kind of use these domains as a canary: if any of them move off Gandi en
masse, that's probably a sign that I should re-evaluate my registrar
choice.
I did further research after I first moved to Gandi, and was pleased
with what I found at the time. That was nearly a decade ago, though, so
my memory on the particulars is worse than foggy. I did note recently
that they just added presence in the US, and that concerns me a little
bit.
