So in summary, .at and .is are the best in terms of not getting your domain taken by others.

.de and .ru seem to be similar in that regard.

Most of the others limit arbitration-related takedowns to trademarks. I would be wary of those which allow broader takedowns.

.at hides personal info. .is seems to make name and email public. .de seems to make name and mailing address public. .ru has "normal" whois.

As a Canadian, I'm not at risk for a Canadian trademark takedown and individuals have their Whois data hidden so I prefer .ca to .com/.net/.org

I can't help but chuckle that the most secure and censorship resistant domain is the .onion domain.

Well it is literally designed for that. Only downside is that you have to be on the network (TOR) to begin with.
