This all sounds like renting to me. Instead you should:

  - put a rack in your home
  - buy an IPv4 block
  - buy dark fibre
  - start your own ISP
  - advertise routes over BGP
  - host your own email
  - found a registrar and transfer your domains over
All easily obtainable for less than a million dollars in capital. Though once your FTTH and undersea cable operations ramp up you'll need further access to capital.

The second you have a domain you can move it where you want. Change the software, look and feel. You keep subscribers. You don’t need to own every atom, just enough to give you options.

You can’t move your X or FB account. They can block you anytime, or reduce traffic. Way fewer options.

Having control over a domain name doesn't mean all that much when the data hosted on it can be hijacked or held hostage at any point.
