If you own any sort of vanity domain, "At least annually, a registrar must present to the registrant the current Whois information, and remind the registrant that provision of false Whois information can be grounds for cancellation of their domain name registration. Registrants must review their Whois data, and make any corrections." http://www.icann.org/en/registrars/wdrp.htm http://www.icann.org/en/registrars/wdrp.htm and whois is a 5-second task. I'm not sure where the 'registered by a private individual' details masking services fit into it, I assume there's some provision for personal privacy, but I'm not 100% certain. Anyone to whom I give my email address can very easily find my full name, phone number and current address. I should really check out some of those masking services.
