to and if you game a way to do it, it can't be counted as reliable).<br />
<br />
And there are reasons why you might want to (mail servers may want to<br />
soft bounce emails from domains in an expired state, I personally want<br />
to never see an email again from a domain cloaked with whois privacy.)<br />
<br />
Or as Paul Vixie said, to be able to blackhole entire Registrars. I<br />
would love that.<br /></blockquote>

These are all excellent examples of where RDAP with anonymous access<br />
would excel: it's parsable, you can ask for specific things, and<br />
differential access means you could make just some small subset of<br />
stuff public. <br /></blockquote>

<div>Use of RDAP here seems largely irrelevant to the use case Mark and Paul are talking about, i.e., automated bulk queries.</div>
<div><br /></div>
<div>Do you think registries/registrars will not rate limit RDAP (differentiated access or not)?</div>
