    NFSN allows you to host websites but last I checked they won't just give you a server for you to run whatever you like.

    ...in exchange for knowing who you are. (If they couldn't de-dup you via some kind of identity verification, they wouldn't be able to offer a free promo, as some asshole could then just come and generate a million free accounts and lash them together to run a botnet/crypto-mining-farm/etc on.) I believe the GP's question is "is there any public-web hosting platform that I can use entirely anonymously; where they allow me to sign up using a VPN; and where I don't ever have to pass them anything / sign in through anything / link anything that could be linked back to my identity?" And I believe the answer to that question is "no." (Well, okay, if you're fine with a static website, you could pin your data using FileCoin, and then set a domain up as a DNSLink pointer to [an IPFS gateway for] the relevant IPFS URN. That's how https://docs.ipfs.io https://docs.ipfs.io works. But that's not quite what "web hosting" means to most people.)

      The moment a service allows anonymous signup it inevitably gets abused the shit out of itself for spam, botnet C&C, DoS attacks and worse.

        This is why I don't see how services like Mullvad can stay afloat forever.

    You still have to pay for bandwidth. Free tier provides only 1Gb egress.
