Depending on who you buy from, .ru would be your best bet.

You could try Offshore web-hosting but limits you to only pornography and torrents/piracy. The best choice is hosting on .tor
I know they can grab .com's, I assume .net and .org just the same. Bodog casino had their .com snagged, they moved to .eu so I assume these are safe. However, I am guessing you don't want to buy it from a US based domain registrar as they could be forced into revealing who owns it and into taking it down. Can anyone recommend a registrar that I'll be reasonably safe from the US government? And for that matter, a hosting company with inexpensive VPS servers that won't cooperate with the feds?
This is what namecoin was made for (at least the domain registration part), for now I think they just do .bit addresses but from what I have read they should be able to handle others but don't quote me on that last part :-D
Namecoins are the way to go.
Although right now theres only a small handful of technically savvy people who use/know what they are, hopefully theyll catch on. (so if your website doesnt target that audience I wouldn't put to much stock in it).
But ultimately it's a dns type pointer that a government can't cease. Although the end user needs to know about the .bit dns entry.
.cc feels scammy to me at a glance. I like .eu, just don't know a good place to buy the domain and hosting. Like, where is thepiratebay hosted, or some bitcoin casinos or similar
.co.cc is probably what was being referred to. It's not a TLD in itself, but a South Korean company specializing in free web domains provided under the co.cc TOS. Sites registered with these domains will look like x.co.cc, where x is the domain name you provided at the moment of registration. Sites registered here are also removed from Google search results, which you can use to somewhat augment your privacy.
As for the ideal domain/VPS integration you want to use, you're probably going to keep getting vague answers until people know exactly what you want to use the site for. Unless you're involved in illicit drugs, porn, or plan to have a static repository for copyrighted material, I don't think you have enough reason to be concerned about federal law enforcement touching your online content.
I would say just learn how to host your website through the Tor network, People can still access it via the tor2web out proxy.
His site could be down or unusable for inexcusable amounts of time owing to the heavy traffic transmitted over Tor, just saying. Additionally, any interruption in Tor service on his end would disrupt the site.

.cc is the Internet country code top-level domain (ccTLD) for Cocos (Keeling) Islands, an Australian territory. It is administered by VeriSign through a subsidiary company eNIC
Not so sure it's immune to being taken offline. But probably safer than a .com
