I think they understand it just fine. ---rsk p.s. To clarify, I'm on the record stating that there should be no anonymity of any kind in WHOIS: those operating resources on the public Internet need to be publicly acccessible and publicly accountable. I've also said that all WHOIS data (and all TLD zone data) should be completely publicly accessible -- including in bulk download format with no registrations/restrictions/etc. But I strongly doubt either of these things will happen.
