It's rediculous to state that placing contact information for a domain 
name is a privacy issue. A domain is public record, as should the 
contact information be. Is verisign out to help spammers any way that 
they can? It's bad enough that the whois information is often out of 
date with obvious bogus information like 555-1212.
