How do you know if someone is on the list?

When I registered my domain I got WHOIS protection and then LE just made sure I owned the domain. There was no asking about who I am or where I reside or what lists I might be on.

You can search the list here:

https://www.treasury.gov/resource-center/sanctions/sdn-list/...

Some entries have specific domains associated with them, but we are obligated to not serve any domain directly associated with (i.e. controlled by) an SDN entity, not just those listed.

If we become aware that we may be serving an entity on the SDN list (often via someone emailing us) we have to conduct an investigation which may result in termination of service.
