Feedback re proposal to remove anonymous WHOIS proxies

["James Younger" <james@younger.email>]

Hello, some feedback regarding your proposal to ban the use of proxies for
domain whois details, I strongly oppose this view, as with the current
significant global issue of widespread theft of online identities, financial
details & money, website content & property (even illegal transfer of
physical real estate via online communications with real estate firms &
sellers), removing the public's ability to conceal identity, contact details
& physical location is completely unwarranted.

 

If agency's proposal to ban proxy services goes through, anyone who operates
a "commercial'' website would have their phone number and physical address
available publicly online, and this must not take place.
