A recent survey published by the Internet name and number distribution Agency (ICANN) shows that COM, NET, ORG, INFO. Biz, such as the world's largest number of registered domain names registered information is only 23% real-name rate.  Analysts pointed out that although the true accuracy of domain name registration information in technology, management and so on, but the global domain name registration information is not optimistic about the real names. Experts said that if all domain name registration information items are true, accurate and complete, then the proportion of qualified may be lower, is not expected to exceed 5%. It is understood that ICANN's current investigation is based on the criterion that "address is valid, the name and address are independent, respondents recognize the ownership of the domain name and confirm the information is accurate and effective", that is, the domain name registration information is true.  According to this standard, COM, NET, org and other domain name registration information is 23% of the true ratio. In fact, the high proportion of false domain registration information has become a global "common problems." As early as 2005, research conducted by the United States General Audit Office showed that the domain name registration information is obviously wrong or incomplete, and it is ubiquitous in the top three common top-level domain, namely, org, NET, COM domain name registration service. The suspicion that the domain name holder has not paid enough attention to the registration information and is concerned about the leakage of personal privacy is the two main reasons for the low real name rate of domain registration information. ICANN's survey shows that, first, the domain name holders of the domain name registration information is true and accurate, they do not believe that the provision of false or untrue domain name registration information will have some undesirable consequences; in fact, under ICANN's policy, domain name registration information is not real and can be written off. Second, the domain name registration information and personal identity information is closely related, the domain name Holder believes that the provision of real identity information may lead to personal privacy disclosure.  The survey also shows that, because in the Domain name application Registration link, the Registrar does not carry on the authenticity verification to the domain name applicant's identity information, this disguise encourages the domain name applicant to provide the false information or the untrue Information application registration domain name.
