I'm having a bit of trouble researching what country would be best to rent a VPS in, in terms of not getting communist content on there censored. Because obviously if content is deemed illegal in the country the server is hosted in, the VPS host is obligated to take it down (understandable enough, you can't really ask a company to break the law for you).

I'm also concerned with privacy laws too and protection from them.

I've heard various good things about "freedom of speech laws" and privacy laws in Iceland, Romania, Switzerland, Sweden, the Netherlands, and Finland, but I don't know the details.

Does anyone have any input? And if you recommend a certain host country, do you know of reputable VPS providers in that country?

Netherlands is pretty good, usually the cheapest too bandwidth wise and a global internet hub so good routing.
