Maybe the respondent registrar needs to be reminded of what ICANN sez
about the registrar's responsibilities.  How does it make any sense for
them to be repetitively not vetting the information being submitted to
them by some known bogus information submitter.  And over and over
again.

I think part of the problem is that the registrars are sensitive to the
issue that people don't like their information posted publicly;  and
many registrars and 3rd party systems have mechanisms in place so that
people don't actually have to post anything of their own at all -- but
instead post the information of some 'agent' for the domain
registration.
