How violent porn site operators disappear behind Internet privacy
protections
http://j.mp/18e6XVf (Washington Post)
The sites carried links to one another, allowing customers to have
access to several for a single payment, but they also appeared to
compete. One site bragged: "This is, without a doubt, the sickest
and most depraved rape fantasy content I have EVER seen. . . .
Even if you are a seasoned fan, like me, you may STILL come away
shocked." Again, the contact information was of little use, with
most sites listing only a "privacy protection service" run by
their domain registrars. Nearly a year after discovering this
extreme pornographic niche, Bruen was little closer to learning
who operated the sites.

I have long been publicly on record as concerned about both inaccurate
WHOIS information and the availability of total domain registration
cloaking without cause.
