Actually, the chances are that ZoneEdit isn't selling your
information, they are merely publishing the correct information in the
WHOIS record for your domain. As they are doing this, it means anyone
can get your name/address/email with a very simple query
(http://www.geektools.com/whois.php)

After all, doing a WHOIS on my domain (lurghi.net) returns my full
address, phone number, email... At least, the details I had in the UK
(Which I haven't updated since I moved to Canada).
