There was a time when domains automatically hid the owners personal
information, and then suddenly that no longer was the case. You now
have to purchase that privacy for every domain you own.
When was that? I registered my first domain in the late 90s and itinformation, and then suddenly that no longer was the case. You now
have to purchase that privacy for every domain you own.
was required that the personal information was provided, and appeared
on doing a WHOIS.
It may have been possible to hide the details, bit, IME at least, it
wasn't automatic.
The host service I use for my domains used to hide the personal information
of their domain owners. I'm guessing because the domain was purchased
through
their service. It wasn't until at least a year or two ago that I was
notified that they'd no longer do that, but I could now purchase the privacy
through my host, so that's what I do now.

Why did you cross post this? Why did you take no notice of GM when he,
quite correctly, told off BD for using his name in the subject line?
(I know - because you can.)
