Безопасен ли domaintools.com?

While domaintools.com offer a convenient lookup for current domain whois data, they are a serious threat to people's privacy due to keeping and selling historical registration data for each domain. DomainTools business model is based on scraping domain owner data, compiling it into a dossier, keeping it forever in their database, and selling it to anyone who would pay. Domain owners who are only staring a business are often forced to provide their personal name, home address and private phone number to the registrar, all of which DomanTools hoovers up and then sells to all sorts of scammers and spammers long after the personal data has been replaced with company name and contact details or protected by whois privacy settings. DomainTools have been sued by New Zealand Domain Name Commission and got an injunction that banned DomainTools to collect the whois data of .NZ domains and ordered the suppression of the data used in the existing DomainTools dossiers offered for sale. Hopefully more countries and registrars join New Zealand in defending the privacy of their citizens and clients, and eventually forbid DomainTools to make money from data abuse and privacy violations.
