It's not just about privacy. If you have your real number up there, you'll start getting 5 calls a month from ecommerce and seo experts offering you all kinds of great services for a low low price.
Not forgetting those letters claiming that you have to renew your domain with some iffy company for £100. I wonder how many people fall for those and inadvertently transfer their domain to these scammers?
