This is the only valid answer in 30+ posts. Rest is more or less SPAM.

Canada - "DMCA ignored". LOL. Yes, keep believing that.

If you want a shitty NL provider where the owners are real scumbags, ignoring DMCA and childporn abuse take down requests. Try ecatel/novogara/ipvolume!

This.

Not sure if this is a joke but the US has Safe Harbour laws just for user generated content.

I highly doubt OP cares about whatever-harbor laws at all.

These countries ignore US copyright laws including DMCA: Netherlands, Luxembourg, Bulgaria, Russia, Hong-Kong, Singapore, Malaysia.

I would recommend rethinking your definition of sh*thole, in 2020 the meaning may have shifted.

Yes. Very nice copy&paste from #1 Google result content mill nonsense.

Most countries in the world are DMCA ignored. Hosting presence it's just extremely limited to those who aren't (I'd love me some Data Center in Transnistria or NGK).

Keep in mind ... Russia the gov can, and will, just come to tap/take anything it sees as valuable in any way.

Pardon me but that's BS. One proof: the oligarchs - and it would even be perfectly legal to strip them of their loot. More proof: Just look at their tax rates.
Also, and funny, the russian state even provided art grants to pussy riot (whom they allegedly terrorized and beat up).

From what I see the problems wrt privacy, DMCA, etc are (a) that Russia takes it's own laws quite seriously, so if what a DMCA notice alleges also is against russian law chances are that either the provider will terminate your server or russian LEA will "look" at you, and (b) that it's perceived as perfectly normal to show id and/or tell address, phone etc. for many things, e.g. buying train tickets.

I had a few free-speech kind of sites in Russia and also know others who have and I never had even the slightest trouble although I had users who e.g. cursed president Putin quite harshly.

Re Kazakhstan I don't have any experience but I'd be careful there because, based on what I heard and read those two countries are not really on par and I'm not sure that KZ (unlike Russia) meets even just average standards in terms of law, de facto LEA, and liberty.

To a sh*thole country?

Try Macedonia, they are all local providers. I saw ads on a it forum about qhost they seem to be pretty decent. UNet is great company for cloud hosting as well and telesmart is ISP provider with over 10 years in the market.

I don't know anyone that had DMCA problems while using residential internet here however i am not sure about the cloud hosting.
