Anyone have the experience registering a domain name with false personal information?

I’m trying to register one but all provider asks for name and address. Anyone have the experience providing false information? Do they really care enough to check your info manually if you don’t use your domain name for malicious purposes?

particularly interested in experiences with cloudflare

thanks a lot

    lol that’s a relief to hear

    but it’s been a decade maybe the policy have changed nowadays?

    according to @PhilipTheBucket@ponder.cat

    They definitely do check. I don’t know how detailed the checks are or how major a crime it is to use someone else’s info, but there are enough checks in place, you can’t just type in Porky Pig or made-up nonsense or anything

      I mean, it renews every year. The worst case scenario is it’s against the TOS of the registrar and they can suspend your domain. Do with that what you will of course. Also, I was doing that with another domain but fixed it when I moved it to porkbun with their free anonymity service. I wasn’t going to pay domain.com’s ridiculous fees for it.
