And some jokers like OVH do not charge anything for privacy but fuck it up. I got recently hundreds of emails and a dozen phone calls from various spammers as a result of registering some domain names with them despite chosing the privacy options.

The publication of personal information on whois cannot stop soon enough.

Yep, they only replace owner but not contact details for admin or tech. That way your details are as public as without their "service".
