Hello Claudius,

We want to remain as impartial as possible, and so we really don't want
to endorse one web host over another. I recomment, however that you go
to google and type in some words like > ethical web host < or something
of the sort. You will then get a nice listing of hosts to choose from.

Otherwise, the best thing is to ask around among your friends or look in
various online forums and magazines to see how the different web hosts
compare with regards to your needs.

Hope this helps!

A couple that I have used that have been fine:

http://he.net/  Hurricane Electric

or

https://www.nearlyfreespeech.net/  

Both have nice terms of service.  Entry level pricing for Hurricane
Electric is $9.95/month and provides robust webserver and e-mail
service.  Nearlyfreespeech.net is very low priced, but they only provide
the webserver.  Google's gmail service will actually handle your
domain's e-mail for free if you want them to, and they provide pop3 and
smtp access as well.  It's all found under "google apps".

I have not yet checked out gandi's hosting, but based on the excellence
of their other services, I assume it would be a good choice, too.
