Yes, don't want my domain to be removed/suspended.
The info is hidden from the public since every registrar should include domain privacy for free.
Can also use something like Njalla where they register and hold the domain for you and give you access to it.
A subpoena can still reveal the owner's information to the world. Even if it's a frivolous lawsuit that ends up getting tossed.
I mean it all depends on why you want to hide it. I don't care about subpoenas. I care about spammers. First time I signed up for a domain i didn't realize you went on a public list, and it reached the point where I was getting a phone call every 20 mins or so.
This depends. A subpoena is only binding if the registrar is in a country that is legally liable. Some privacy focused registrars purposely locate themselves in countries that keep them legally insulated.
