Many or most registrars have the option to hide your info from public view. I know that Namecheap.com offers that for free.

subpoenas can still reveal the owner

Your threat model will determine whether spending extra on Njalla is worth it over simple Whois protection from your registrar.

joker.com does that as well. This always implies KYC though, otherwise maybe Njalla or similar.
