It’s an interesting read, but it has several flaws.

It refers to registrars solely and ignores registries.

It also makes it sound like issues around whois are “new”, which we all know isn’t true.

The comments about IP addresses make it sound like it’s a theoretical concern, yet there is case law eg:
