[IAG-WHOIS conflicts] News from Brazil

[Stephanie Perrin]

This is a great example of what we discussed at some length in the 
Experts Working Group.  The question is, does a criminal actually put 
accurate information in the WHOIS?  Can Godaddy actually check the 
information provided, and still charge only 15$ US for two years 
registration?  If greater accuracy is required, will fraudsters simply 
steal someone else's accurate data?  What data is really useful for 
prosecution, the WHOIS data or the registration data which the registrar 
has?  Even the financial data held by Godaddy could be the financial 
data from a stolen credit card, unless there is some control registrars 
can use to stop that.
