I think they should roll out something similar to UK domains across on to .coms as well. With a .uk then you have to show your details unless you are a non-trading individual. If you are such an individual then you can opt out of having your details shown and it's free and done by Nominet, not the individual companies you buy domains from. While I can see a reason for companies not to be able to hide their details (it gives you a definite address for them that you can then match to a trading location, assuming its real), I think individuals have a right to not have their details easily available on the 'net for anyone with a vigilante inclination to be able to find and abuse.
