This right here is why you should always get domain privacy.
- agopaul 11y ago+1 I wonder how many people just harvest whois info for email addresses
- frgewut 11y ago"domain privacy" is just another extortion scheme.
- sspiff 11y agoProviding a filtered email address without domain privacy is another option. However, a domain needs to have a point of contact, in case of abuse or illegal activity. Domain privacy is a valid service, where the registrar serves as a proxy for you and hides your personal information from public view. While you could argue that it should be included as a default service, the pricing of domains is almost entirely arbitrary anyway.
