The NIC for Sao Tome is at www.nic.st (a common pattern for resold-ccTLD
NICs...)
It has FAQs about Sao Tome, as well as about its services:
"Sco Tomi is one of the least well-known countries in the world."
www.saotome.st has the Official Tourist Site.
The Whois at www.nic.st thinks that goldnow.st is registered to
someone with Australian contact information.
Traceroute has other opinions about the physical location of the server;
the hosting company that serves it has an address in Kentucky,
and it's about 10ms away from the AT&T St. Louis MO router,
which means that Kentucky is believable but not necessarily guaranteed,
and physical location in either Sao Tome or Australia aren't consistent
with the server's location, but that's unrelated to the owner's location.
