Really?
As a hosting provider I’d strongly disagree.
If you’ve got a problem with content on a website you should contact the registrant first.

Michele

When you say web site, it should be taken up with the web host not the
registrar as the registrant is not necessarily the correct content.
Problems with domain -> registrant
Problems with content -> Web host

They follow up with the privacy proxy service if needed. Hopefully all this happens quickly and the cease and desist message is actually delivered.

>>> As others have said, if you have an issue please report it to ICANN,
>>> law enforcement, consumer protection etc., Some of us take our obligations very seriously and lumping all registrars and providers into one big bucket isn't very helpful for constructive dialogue.
>>> We get a number of whois complaints from ICANN every year and we investigate each and every one of them. In some cases it's very obvious that the details provided are bogus, but in others it's not and we have to spend time energy and effort going back and forth with our client and ICANN to resolve it. Sometimes this leads to domains being suspended or deleted, sometimes the whois gets updated, sometimes the complaint is denied. But each complaint is handled on its merits.
>>>
>>> We also have a whois privacy service. It is NOT a fake address. You can check it in the Irish company office:
>>> https://search.cro.ie/company/CompanyDetails.aspx?id=480317&type=C
>>>
>>> Now you may not like that people and organisations choose to obfuscate their contact details via services like that one, but that's a different issue entirely. I also personally have correspondence addresses in the US, mainland UK and a couple in Northern Ireland. I don't live at any of them, but you can send me physical mail and I will get it. You could argue that the address is "fake", but as I can get mail to it I'd suspect that in many cases it'd be considered valid.
