I think you misunderstood what Michael wrote. I think he was referring to
the changes in WHOIS, which makes it harder to find correlating abusers,
since the data is now hidden due to the implementation of GDPR. Privacy
is sometimes a two-edged sword.
Yes, I did mention that in my email. But despite this, I think overall GDPR
is a step in good direction.
I'm not sure the disappearance of WHOIS data was mandated by GDPR.
Lots of domains had anonymous contacts even before, as an initiative
of the relevant registrars. Then, all of a sudden, WHOIS servers were
disabled. An excessively prudent stance or the welcome occasion to
finally dismiss hostmaster responsibilities?
Compare domains with number registries, where RDAP allows fully
automated abuse reporting —subject to the same laws.
