the registrar interest is primarily focused on respecting customer privacy concerns.

How so? I've simply said that if the privacy requirements can't be achieved efficiently, then we must move to a user-pay system. Where did you get the ridiculous idea that a) this will be a profit center and b) that registrars are anti-privacy? Neither could be further from the truth.

You are doing your cause more harm than good with your FUD.
