Exactly. Especially since there may be valid business reasons to collect that would permit the collection, such as the need to evidence domain ownership. Many ccTLDs also see registrars more as registration agents and hold that the actual registration agreement is with them.

Everyone is overreacting currently because of legal uncertainties related to the EU law. The EU law has extraterritorial effects. 

It's okay to 'hide' WHOIS data from public viewing but it might be highly questionable not to collect the data.

..so they fiddle publication of the WHOIS dataset, which, from the looks of things, has always been an option exercised by some respondents.

What would be more interesting to me is to see if they change anything in respect of collection and how consent for collection is recorded. I'm guessing these would be covered in those revised agreements.

Almost half of ccTLDs are planning to hide parts of Whois results from public view in response to incoming European Union law.

That’s according to a recent informal survey of the members of CENTR, the Council of European National Top Level Domain Registries, detailed in a letter to ICANN (https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/correspondence/roste-to-sahel-16nov17-en.pdf) last week.
