How do you explain users mentioning the who is data linking back to GoDaddy?

I'm trying to believe this is just rotten luck, but every single account of this happening seems to link back to GoDaddy.

Buy a whois protection from any registrar and the registrar's name shows up. Given the risk of publicizing your real email and the cost of just $3.99 per year, most people do opt for whois protection.
