Isn't ICANN collecting this data from registrars? I cannot recall myself entering my information on their website. I am sure a lot of people that buy domains don't even know about ICANN getting the data.

Registrars that are ICANN accredited are obligated to place all registrant data in escrow, so in effect, yes.
