I guess it really depends on what kind of site you're running. For boring, non-interactive sites, I think that's probably fine. I never put real information into WHOIS data (except for my email) because I have absolutely no desire for people who check to know who I am. I'm not running businesses and I've never made a dime off any of my sites. I just think of all the community drama I've seen and how much worse it would be if they had my real name, phone number, and address. Not even considering all the other places I post under the same screenname, there's been plenty of nonsense on the forums I've run, and people have been perfectly happy to dox and harass other people whose personal information they could find out over incredibly trivial things. No thanks.
