OK... I'll nibble. I don't think you get this more than anyone else because of your stance. But perhaps that will change now that you've publically declared your resistance. ;-) It's incredibly important that there be accurate contact information for a domain. If you don't want to list any one person, for a particular role, you may opt to use role accounts. Unless I've misread and misunderstood the policy, neither the contacts nor the registrant need be a natural person. Contacts can be role accounts and the registrant can certainly be a legal entity instead of an individual. Additionally, if you have privacy concerns (which I can certainly understand and respect), many Registrars offer proxy contact options for a nominal fee. - Christopher ======================
