On the other hand, I have seen where somebody at NS gave a copy of their WHOIS data for 'research' purposes. Technically, the webinterface to the WHOIS data is what that restriction is referring to. Not necessarily to disallow someone from asking for/paying for access to that data via another means.

I also put in an index.html that redirects accidential visitors to my commerical business homepage.
