They probably crawl the whois of every site on daily basis. They say they will not remove the whois record from their site no matter what but... if paid a fee $14.95 a year for a name they will kindly hide it for a year or hide past records for $39.95 one time fee. lol.
But the fault is by Moniker side of course. I guess I will be more careful now with putting my private info in registrar whois no matter if it has privacy feature on or not.

Not hard to imagine now mom, friends, anyone Googling a name and getting street address, phone, email and a link to... my sex shop site. Nice

I wonder if Google will remove it if I submit a report? Because actually that would fix the problem if the info was not in Google search results.
I'm surprised more aren't complaining about Whois mind. Sadly what they are doing is legal in most of the world but it really shouldn't be. It's an extortion scheme basically.
