Default Re: Absolute Poker Scandal: An Inside Job

Dunno if anyone hit this yet, but the Domain Discreet thing that some were confused about earlier, as I understand it is a very very common service. I own a few domains myself and used a similar service so that my name + address didn't come up in the WHOIS search. In the US if you "own" a domain you are legally required to put your correct contact info up there on the domain registration for everyone to see-- so there are other companies like DD who you can pay $30/yr to "take ownership" of the domain and put their corporation's contact info in your place, protecting your ID from spammers and the like.
