I responded (http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3388223) to the same person to whom your comment is directed. I recommended INTERNET.BS, and from my experience, what you say doesn't seem to apply to them. Their prices are low, and I have no knowledge of them imposing any related service, or charging for not imposing such. Whatever they are doing differently, to make a profit, is not obvious to me.
I also like the name, and I have yet to find anything to dislike about them, except for the already-mentioned, occasionally-flaky DNS, but I've also experienced that with "bigger" players such as NAME.COM. Apparently, for any domain considered important, DNS should always be handled separately from the registrar.

Thanks. I'll check them out. They're new to me.
Honestly, as a US citizen, I do get nervous about using a non-US company, but I have no good reason for that feeling.
The name, Internet.BS, did make me smile though. This whole SOPA mess could be called Internet B.S.
