To your second point, isn't that exactly what services like Whois Privacy offer? Certainly not fully anonymous but your actual contact info is limited to the registrar and the privacy service (not even ICANN).
- Sir_Cmpwn 10y agoAye, and it works well. But I don't think it should have to, and I think ICANN should behave more tactfully when it fails.
- cdubzzz 10y agoAbsolutely true re: ICANN's process. I skipped your first point because at first glance your solution didn't seem helpful, but then I couldn't really think of the value/purpose of the current solution, hah.
- Macha 10y agoThe issue with that is that from Icann's POV, the privacy service is the owner of the domain. It's not an ideal solution
- dkersten 10y agoSo they artificially create a precarious situation and then charge you money for it (or at least, allow registrars to do so). If they just didn't disclose the information publicly without your consent, the whole privacy-as-a-product wouldn't be necessary. But then people would be less rich, I guess.
