Downside to making your domain private?

Yes it does effect the SE work.

Google likes to know the WHOIS info for your domain so it knows who it is indexing.

If Google checked who-is on sites at least 30% wouldn't get indexed.

The only reason i say 'interesting' is because when Google filed for their patents a few months back they said...

The domain name owner?s address is considered, most likely to help in a local search result.
