> finding the best country and provider.

Tired of people asking here what's the most best/friendly provider.
Do people think saturating popular names like Amazon AWS, OVH, Dreamhost,
Rackspace, Lowendbox, Hurricane, Digitalocean, etc with nodes is
helping Tor's physical, logical or legal diversity? Or is that helping small
independant businesses that just might have crazy ideas like say...
anonymity and privacy... prosper?

Just pick some third or second world country, or random city
with 1M pop or more and start looking with credit card in hand.
Pay monthly, document it on the wiki, and move on to another
if they suck.

The place/provider that will keep the node, move a useful amount
of bandwidth, and that no one else has picked... that's the best place.
And having not been picked before, you won't find it by asking this list :)
