Unfortunately, there are a couple of people that have been victims of real whois info. For example a guy named Bruce. He runs a site about erotic travel. A couple of years back he visited Thailand and he took photos of bars and massage parlors in Phuket to publish them on his website. As a result he got blacklisted from entering Thailand.

There has been a war raging between several competing porn producers and webmasters in Asia over the past years with several of them being jailed and fined for running websites.

Or look at this Filipino webmaster who got arrested for running a porn board http://pinoyambisyoso.com/blogs/boyb...bastos-nga-ba/ He got busted because he did not have a private whois.

Basically, every competitor or "good" friend may set you up if they want to get you into trouble or have you fired, divorced or whatsoever. Sometimes it is just enough to spread the word about your domains to ruin one's reputation inside a conservative community.
