For your domain, you could go with https://njal.la/ They are the actual owner of the domain and grant you the rights on it. This means that the whois will be them not you. They will still help with legitimate legal inquiries obviously though.
Check their about and faq page, it's interesting. Since they seem to do VPS, you could host the website there.
I don't know how much info they require from you, however. I didn't register there yet.
That sounds like it could be a recipe for disaster if they as the owner decide to fuck you over. The nice thing about actually owning the domains is that even if your registrar goes rogue you can still transfer it out (although it may be painful).
That is definitely true, it is risky and you have to trust your registrar. This has to be factored in when thinking of the threat model, or at least based on what are your goals and what the domain is for!
