[22:37:27] <exec> 08└─The fact that it's the MPAA whining leads me to believe that removing WHOIS privacy would be very detrimental to the public and that the last thing it would do is advance privacy. This ranks right up there with Facebook's "improve your privacy by sending us all your nude photos" nonsense.

[22:40:06] <exec> 08└─Many try to "save a buck" by going with dodgy but (seemingly) cheaper lenders. Even the big org I'm with now is often penny-wise-pound-foolish.
