Yeah, registration expiry info is only available in WHOIS, not in the zone itself.
Dealing with other TLDs that allow second-level requires knowledge of their structures. Some of them have wildcards too, and that is detectable. Anyone doing this kind of automation can figure it out. It's not hard, it just sucks.
You don't have to answer all of them. You don't have to directly answer their questions either. You could just say things like:
- I don't want this. This system is not in my best interest. - I don't want to register with anyone to query this data. - Abuse mitigation should be handled by each registrar, this is a good way for them to differentiate themselves. - I don't want to pay for this system at all - Law enforcement should be given no special access at all. Nobody should accredit them.
You could also contact your registrar if you own a lot of domains and let them know you don't support this move at all. Ask them to oppose it.
Count me as one. I view sending any money to that industry as an immoral act. I believe the world would be a better place without them. I'd rather no one watch or listen to their output at all, but if it's going to be consumed I'd much rather it be pirated than purchased.

That's ridiculous. A well designed semi-auto is extremely reliable. That's why nearly every single person required to be armed to do their job has one. When I see all of the police using it I'll consider it myself.
Requiring civilians to use such technology in its current form is just another way of slowly disarming them, similar to banning magazines. It's just another way of saying "Look, you can still own a gun. Just not a gun that's very good"
Glad to see yet another nice feature for my favorite database. This one doesn't really excite me. I hardly ever want to update views without joins anyway.

The ruling regime hasn't changed in 100 years. As there is not a dimes worth of difference between Democrats and Republicans on any issue of substance, it is indeed extremely complicated for power to be legally transferred to new leadership.

Congrats Marty!

If you don't get NXDOMAIN then it's registered.
Everyone go here and let them know we don't want this.

What we need is a standard format for WHOIS responses. What we don't need is some monopoly gatekeeper.

I don't care what it's hosting. Censorship of any kind is unacceptable.
Thank you for posting. Any site that has a link taken away from it by any authority should be linked to by everyone in retaliation for the censorship.
The editors should have linked to it in the summary. They should fix the oversight and link to it now.

Talking heads quote the real GDP which is calculated using the CPI. If CPI is lower than reality then real GDP will be overstated.
You are in the group that doesn't understand money. Money is a market phenomenon.
Exactly which governments cut spending again?
Purchasing music, movies, or paying for cable TV is immoral. Just don't do it, and try your best to stop your friends and family from doing it.

How dare you, after everything that's transpired over the last 10 years, call us "crazy civil libertarian types".

Peer1 fails to take adequate measures to keep the power on.
And they have weapons of mass destruction just like Iraq
That will be ignored as soon as the capability to occupy celestial bodies exists.
The writing is so bad I can barely follow the story.

"If the pizza delivery man brings the wrong order one more time and I'll kill him!"
Is that really a threat? Am I actually planning to murder the delivery man?
This will be counted as a foiled terrorist attack.
