[OT] IDing a website owner

[Jay West]

Not necessarily. The domain may be registered under the ISP, or under the 
end user. In addition, as domains move around often the contact information 
in the whois database isn't accurate any more.

Usually the best route is an email to webmaster at xxx.xxx or 
postmaster at xxx.xxx or www at xxx.xxx
