I agree that ICANN's WHOIS policy shift would be akin to criminal negligence.
What do you think of the concept of "domain tasting with proper whois"? :) (Yes, I think domain tasting and this ICANN move regarding whois are both large crocks of bovine-based fertilizer. I *could*, in a better world, support the concept of "special circumstances" as Computerworld mentioned - except that to make it *useful*, ICANN and the bottom-feeding registrars would have to collectively grow some testicles. Otherwise, every phisher and spammer would file for "political dissident" status (hey - they disagree with the politics that passes laws that prohibit their behavior. They're dissidents :) Except for the few that will claim to be running "Homes for battered domains" :)
