In countries other than the USA there are strict controls on personal information.

The UK/European countries have GPDR for example.

    This has nothing to do with GDPR, but nice try. By default you need to provide your details for domain registration, to hide these details is optional.

    Nothing wrong with that, but coupled with hiding yourself on open source project as well and coupled with host which proudly advertises:

    Dedicated Servers & VPS with DMCA Ignored Hosting

    No, thanks. Probably Russkis but still.

      Having the support chat on Telegram is really sketchy. No thanks.

      Actually the entire whois database is "privacy protected" because of GPDR (if my memory is correct)

      Thankfully, because I used to get postal scams for the hundred or so domains I used to host.

      You good for tinfoil bro?

But how do you know it's offshore to them?

    In this scenario offshore means out of western jurisdiction. This is something hosting provider advertises.

To most of the world the United States is offshore. Recent developments have also made the US unreliable as a hosting provider.
