For what and why do you need to confirm the passport of the owner of the domain?

Question

Domain name market

For what and why it is necessary to do confirmation and what will happen if not done?

Answer 1

On the one hand, you might think "Yes, what right do they have to demand a passport - is it a personal document?!" Yes, there are registrars who require passport data, some do not.
And on the other hand, in case of any controversial points (God forbid, of course). How to prove that the domain is yours? And you are you?
Verification via email: what if it gets hacked;
Verification via phone: and if it is lost or something else;
Maybe it's right that such verification is necessary?
Calm down, sort of.
I took the domain through Majordomo - they require a passport. Provide something like "owner's certificate".

Answer 2

You suddenly get a confirmation request, and you are busy / on vacation / in the hospital / drunk.
The site will be disabled.
But you won't be able to fix it soon. And the site will be disabled until you confirm.
Plus, all operations on the site - change of owner, etc.
I have one client who will now forever pay for my domain, because he attached it to me, put it on service. Changed legal. face. He does not know the password (I told him during registration, but he lost it, and I do not store passwords).
Now he cannot do anything with the domain. So it will always pay me, because apart from me, no one will extend the domain to it and will not set up delegation;)))))

Answer 3

Here you place material about drugs, or any other that violates the laws of the Russian Federation. And Rospotrebnadzor does not know who to go to and who to punish for it.

Answer 4

No confirmation is needed for a long time. Where did you read this?

Answer 5

A simple example - a dude cannot sell the site because the left passport data is full. Another example - a friend cannot change the registrar for the same reason.

Answer 6

to know who you are
, why do you show your passport at work when applying for a job?
