Ev notes that Google now offers WHOIS lookups. Type "whois google.com" into a Google searchbox, and the first result is an offer to show you the WHOIS data for the domain name registration.
Two questions:
The IP address from which you have visited the Network Solutions Registrar WHOIS database is contained within a list of IP addresses that may have failed to abide by Network Solutions' WHOIS policy. Failure to abide by this policy can adversely impact our systems and servers, preventing the processing of other WHOIS requests.
If you're unhappy about WHOIS and privacy or research, please help me add your thoughts to the ongoing ICANN task forces' consideration.
