Although we choose to opt out of privacy for business reasons everyone should have the freedom of choice.
Then you certainly see a value in the privacy service and basically need something like it in order to function normally as a business. Why do I need a warrant to see how many pairs of shoes you own but I can look up a record of domains? This area needs legal help and frankly I don't see why you should have to pay if you want it private. It should be private out of the box in the same way that information entered into almost any form is protected to some extent. Fighting to allow them to continue to charge for this service seems fundamentally wrong, but I guess it's the way to go.
