My vague recollection of the policy that I haven't looked at for a year
is that a reseller can enter their own information in place of the
registrant's as long as the registrant agrees to this displacement (ie -
via an agency agreement). When handled properly, the info isn't false,
its just not leading directly to the registrant's front door...
