NSI sends out unsolicited WHOIS data.

You can forget about WHOIS privacy problems, bulk access, and all the like:
Today, you get that information for free, from NSI. They just sent me 1.7MB
worth of e-mail addresses. Yes, that's right: I got a message from
customernotification at networksolutions.com with the subject ".ORG Domain Name
Update" (they are the registrar of record for does-not-exist.org). That
message contained about 86,000 e-mail addresses, from R over Z to _. One
address per line. Time to do a transfer.
