LEGAL ISSUES REGARDING WHOIS DATABASES
One fundamental prerequisite for the functioning of the Domain Name
System (DNS) is the uniqueness of a registered domain name. A whois
database service was therefore created as a support service to register
information on each registered domain name. This service allows
interested parties to address queries to the database to obtain
information about who the holder is, how many domain names a holder
has registered, who is the registrar for the domain name, etc.
