Presumably then Nominet will now disable the domain on the basis of incorrect contact details (see uk-crypto thread "Unpersons" Jan 2010, and
http://www.out-law.com/page-10652
"Nominet legal head Nick Wenban-Smith told OUT-LAW Radio that it acted because there had been a breach of the contract agreed by the people behind the websites. They had given false contact details, he said. "If you provide false details or they are out of date for some reason then that enables us to have an investigation and suspend until we're happy that everything is well," he said."
