If a TLD doesn't offer WHOIS protection, is a PO Box high on the scale of importance?

On the other hand, are there any decent WHOIS protection services that aren't strictly integration-based?

@yetitaxxi my country TLD requires exposing a document (something that assembles SSN on US) on whois so we're kinda fucked

@athosbr99 That doesn't sound like a very good system :/ I don't even mind paid WHOIS protection, but not even providing an abstraction layer is pretty shitty

@yetitaxxi that number is kinda public anyway (several politicians numbers are public in a trove of public documents) but can be a pain in the ass if someone decides to target another one (can be used for registering phone numbers and other things).

the only kind protection is opening a company and use the company number and address (which are way more public)

@yetitaxxi if you are curious you can query uber.floripa.br on any whois tool
