You pointed out the problem with the whois blocking.  Those are 
corporate contacts meant for public dissemination.
There is no privacy protection for such information under the USA or 
EU.   What is being said is that corporate contacts
in the whois database deserve protection but similar information 
collected by RIPE is somehow not worthy of protection.
This is what happens when you get involved in trying to use the 
regulatory laws to deceive people.

Companies are made up of actual human beings so I don't see a 
distinction.  Companies (unlike regulatory agencies) create jobs.

Thank You
