Anonymity is important with regard to WHOIS registrations. The goal is not to
eliminate valid contact points, but to make it difficult for spammers to use it
as a way to scrape mailing and email addresses. Please do not eliminate
anonymous registration services. Bad actors will use bogus information after
this change anyway, so this provides no benefit to anybody. In fact, the rules
should be expanded to allow empty contact information if you do not want to be
contacted. For issues such as copyright violation, media companies should
contact the registrar in those cases, who will contact the domain owner. WHOIS
information should be private.
