    OK... I'll nibble.

    I don't think you get this more than anyone else because
    of your stance. But perhaps that will change now that
    you've publically declared your resistance. ;-)

    It's incredibly important that there be accurate
    contact information for a domain. If you don't want to
    list any one person, for a particular role, you may opt
    to use role accounts. Unless I've misread and
    misunderstood the policy, neither the contacts nor the
    registrant need be a natural person. Contacts can be
    role accounts and the registrant can certainly be a
    legal entity instead of an individual.

    Additionally, if you have privacy concerns (which I can
    certainly understand and respect), many Registrars offer
    proxy contact options for a nominal fee.
