Agreed; the article is very one sided and also get some of the fundamentals wrong (for example, it uses the term “web sites” when it should be talking about domains)

It also fails to draw any analogy between domain privacy services and real world analogies such as using LLCs.

Right.

If this fearmongering leads to the death of domain privacy (and I do think media campaigns like this often precede and foreshadow legislative campaigns), individuals who own domains will just be forced to create dummy business entities in some cheap jurisdiction in order to keep their info private. Hardly a win for law and order.
