don't happen if I use private registration



SUGGESTION: Initially register with private registration - then change it
to regular non-hidden registration a few weeks later or so. (hopefully
before putting it into production, especially if used for/with/in emails) I
think this will cut down on the majority of those crazy spam phone calls.


I sometimes get those e-mails a few months after registration. So while
your suggestion will cut down a part of it, there will still be a good
chunk left.
And when it comes up for renewal, it gets up again.
