I work on an proximity Internet project involving millions of 3/4LD 
addresses. The issue is not the level of the root (please reread RFC 1034, 
P. Mokapertis has well understood that). The issue is the right of the 
people to introduce themselves or not. We have started the QuiEst projet. 
http://quiest.net (sorry it is in French for that project). Basically 
QuiEst means WHOIS in Latin, a universal language for a universal right. 
The principle is simple: the best whois you can find is the web. So the 
ultimate idea is that quiest://domain.name give access to an opt-in 
information page.

As far as the network security is concerned the http://nic.ws solution 
works well. You can drop a mail to the DN holder through the Registry. No 
one knows who you are.

I do not want to enter into political aspects but I share now in a well 
documented doctrine on how the universal WHOIS and the methods of 
collection/sales of the personal data will probably lead to a financial 
collapse of the world and to revolutions. Some kind of a new AIDS pandemia.
