    <font size="3">IP owners could also track the domains where their

      Remember, we're not really talking about any content here that is
      hosted on a site with a domain under privacy, as the privacy
      provider usually has no involvement with the hosting etc. There
      are existing paths that deal with infringements that can be
      applied, no matter if there is whois privacy or not.<br>

      But I also have to wonder if a partial disclosure of the

      that I support this either really.</font><br>

    "Lack of response to relays is evidence of bad faith"?  Why would
    someone be obliged to respond to a message they receive, be it via
    relay or not - and how do you ensure that its received?<br>
