RE: [ga] BULK whois
You are mixing apples with oranges.
Bulk
Access DOES NOT EQUAL public access to individual Whois queries via port 43 or a
web based interface.
Both
the registrar and registry (in the case of thick registry operators) are
required by ICANN contract to provide whois information in response to an
individual whois query either via port 43 or a web based tool. There is no opt
provision for access to this data.
However, the registrar in his ICANN accreditation agreement is required
to provide "bulk access" to their Whois data (minus those registrants that opt
out) to any party that request it. In return the registrar is able to charge up
to $10,000 annually.
The
only way I know of to remove your information from both public access Whois and
Bulk Whois is through Go Daddy's Domain Proxy service.
I hope this helps
navigates these complex issues,
Best regards,
Mike

Subject: RE: [ga] BULK whois
Speaking only on the topic of .info and .biz, it is my understanding
of the contracts that the registries do not have a bulk access per se
because it is the registrars that own the data. Therefore, if one was to
purchase Network Solution's bulk whois data they would be entitled to
all ICANN sanctioned domain names that it sponsors (.com, .org, .net .info,
.biz ,etc), provided that the registrant did not opt out as provided for in
the ICANN Registrar Accreditation Agreement.
Mike
Is there a BULK whois file for .info, .biz
and .us like there is one for cno domains?
And how could one opt-out
of
this?
Thanks!
Simon
