I was customer of Strato and I'm disappointed because Strato failed in protecting my personal information completely. Read on...

I know about WHOIS and I don't mind my personal information being displayed based on a domain name. Strato also informs you about this in its Privacy Policy. But what I didn't know, and Strato should know, was that there are websites/companies providing an illegal service which is called "reverse WHOIS lookup", website/companies such as: domaintools.com, whoisology.com, whoisxmlapi.com or who.is.

That means that now anyone can visit such a website, fill MY NAME (!) in as search term and see where I live, what my phone number is, what my e-mail address is, what domain names I own etc. I think the most of 1,5 million people who are customer of Strato don't realise this.

Strato, the personal information of your customers is being (ab)used/sold without their permission, do something! I didn't trusted you my personal information to be abused like this. Take some legal actions against the websites such as domaintools.com!
