If it’s about contacting people, they could make the abuse@ or webmaster@ address mandatory, then you can separate it from your normal email accounts, because the majority will be spam anyway.
And often it's not a violation, it's an alleged, unspecified, un-counterable data point hidden in Google's cloud with no way for the user to determine what it might have been.
I moved everything to AWS DNS and am super happy about it. Domains are mission critical, I'll pay double without blinking to know that my stuff isn't gonna be held ransom over some contrived baloney
Like accidentally changing the name on a kindle to “baba”?

Though, bulk editing would be nice, I'm about to move. :-( If anyone here works for google domains, it would be REALLY nice to be able to update all contact info on all domains at once.
Not really. Appengine for example didn't have an admin API until recently(and it's still quite limited).
What about domain owners like mysql who have no email attached to their domains? I only have two personal domains, but I have never had a need for an accounts to be associated with the domains nor do I think I would ever check it.
Perhaps have those two account DNS lookups always go through the registrar who then forwards to your account email? Even that doesn't seem very fool proof, though.
.com are $12/year
.net are $11/year
.io are $39/year$39/year AWS Route53 and $47.68/year on Porkbun.
Where? I never paid a dime
Since control panels, reputation, policies and other services like DNS are also things that can be bundled together, it's going to be difficult to say whether or how much you're paying for just the privacy component.
Always felt like mild extortion.
That aside, I'm still glad to pay a little more for the overall better service. If they were charging anything like the old Network Solutions prices, that'd be a different matter.
Once a domain is registered all they need to do really is process auto-renew payments, notify me if my card was declined for any reason, and make sure it's kept registered at the registry.
Unfortunately in any case though I've stopped at the gate, they don't appear to have an API
But an issue with whois privacy is that if you ever don't have it for a period (like you forget to renew/autorenew), then it's now saved in a number of DNS/whois history services.
As an aside, .us addresses cannot be registered anywhere with privacy controls enabled.
Ah, yes, its documented:
https://www.namecheap.com/security/whoisguard.aspx
>When you register an eligible new domain name or transfer an existing eligible domain into Namecheap, you'll receive the first year of WhoisGuard privacy protection absolutely FREE.
Free protection, no upsells, $19/yr for 1 yr of .com $13/yr for 5 years. TOTP 2FA as well. Never had a problem for the 15 years I've been with them.
They run their own TLD's .design, .ink and .wiki [1] so these guys really know their stuff. Support is not 24/7, but usual office hours, but those who pick up your phone/email REALLY know what they are talking. Plus really cheap domains, they mentioned somewhere that they are aiming for $1 mark-up for all TLD's.

Other services do.
When I change whois privacy to enabled and press save it just says "Unable to update the contact."
This happens both with my .com and my .net domain.

Given that precedent matters a lot in UDRP cases, I’m not sure that njal.la is a realistic option.
I get some calls/e-mails so quickly I wonder if they have some kind of live stream setup for registrations on some TLDs.
