Hehehe... I think the whois program searches for any instance of what you type in. The TLD records appear intact and seem to reference the correct name servers. NSLookups to different hosts return properly. I suspect you're just getting caught up in the wonderful world of bad DNS servers! :) While entertaining, I don't think the world is ending quite yet. scott-morriss-macbook-pro:~ swmorris$ whois microsoft.com Whois Server Version 2.0 Domain names in the .com and .net domains can now be registered with many different competing registrars.

I expect this means that DNS has been compromised somewhere.
I see that whois is wonky, but DNS looks right. cr1:~# dig amazon.com @j.gtld-servers.net | grep NS ;; flags: qr rd; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 0, AUTHORITY: 2, ADDITIONAL: 2 amazon.com. 172800 IN NS udns1.ultradns.net. amazon.com. 172800 IN NS udns2.ultradns.net. There is weird whois data for facebook.com, youtube.com, myspace.com and some others
