Of course only with us, but if an appropriate complaint is filed with ICANN they will track the issue.  We have been contacted ourselves by ICANN in this regard.

For all domains or only the ones registered with you?
 
I am sure the answer is only for those registered with you.
 
It can be enforced but only if the registrar is willing,  so this is not enforcement in the practical sense.
 
Frankly I don't see how Registrars nor ICANN could enforce the requirement for accurate information, as it is impossible to know in most instances if the provided information is accurate or not.
 
However there should not be any blank lines in the registrant's information, as that could be readily enforced but again is not.

It is enforced, but it's passive.  ICANN doesn't actively pursue incorrect information, but it's the responsability of the registrar to ensure this is accurate.  If we find (or are informed) of domains that are obviously inaccurate, we can invoke processes (within ICANN mandate) to chase after and either update the domain, or release it.

While it is mandated it is often missing.
 
There is nothing to stop a domain owner from removing or providing false the information once they have access to the control panel.
 
And this is like everything else about ICANN, it is mandated but not enforced.
 
Then the idiots who provide false or incomplete information complain when they do not receive renewal information and lose the domain.  :(

ICANN mandates up to date and accurate information listed in the whois, including (but not limited to) name, address, email, pant size, and favourite soup

I recently had a good question asked on our site.
 
Someone asked me if WhoIs info is required, and they said the reason they were asking is this:
 
They found a .Com domain name that all the contact info is missing EXCEPT for a hotmail e-mail address. Is it not a requirment for the whois to show who the current owner is? The people asking said that they owned the domain they thought but when they went to check, it dosn't look like they do. They are trying to go through their records to find a record of the purchase.
 
Any info would be helpful.... ;)
