in thread (OT) Anonymous Domain Registration?

Like a 13 year old wants to set up a web site and the parents don't want the kid's home address known to the world of slimeballs out there?

Like a women's shelter wants to have an informational website without advertising to the world's whackos where to send the letter bombs?

Like a Chinese or Iranian citizen wants to set up a pro-democracy, pro-capitalist website without giving the goon squads directions to their house?

You mean reasons like that?

Question was poorly expressed, apparently. NOT, "do you like their politics?". I'm asking, are they reliable; are there known problems using one; any to avoid; any recommendations.

Thanks.

    Clearly, those are perfectly reasonable situations for using anonymous domain registration. My company deals with internet criminals.

    I apologize for my political rant. I have no personal experience using an anonymous registrar (or any registrar, since I don't own any domains).
