is rumored to have said:

While i cannot comment mentioned OVH domain, i will ask, why anyone
have to know from WHOIS of my domain my name, or my address or anything
about me as private person? Yes, if someone has archive of WHOIS
response, it was there and i was not happy from that. Are you having
label with these info at top of face when you are walking on the street?

Bad analogy.

Owning an operational domain name makes you a public person. A domain name is a claim on a specific piece of the public commons of the DNS. In many places (including the US and at least some European countries) you can only own land if your 'title' to that land is registered with the government in an open public record. In the US, that title includes the record of past ownership and even sales prices. A domain name is intrinsically connected to public interaction.
