Remitur Posted January 22, 2025 Share Posted January 22, 2025 On domaintools.com there's a disclaimer:Â Â Quote Notice: Possible deprecation of WHOIS services after January 28, 2025 for ICANN TLDs ICANN is in the process of transitioning registries and registrars from using WHOIS to provide domain registration data to a replacement protocol, RDAP. This could happen as soon as January 28, 2025. In cases where registries and/or registrars turn off their Whois services, whois.domaintools.com can no longer provide updated WHOIS records. DomainTools is adding RDAP to our enterprise products, Iris Investigate, Iris Detect and the Iris Enrich API. Domain registration data will continue to be provided in those applications. On ICANN I could not find anything about this supposed deadline of January, 28... Â Does anyone know more about this? Is this just an isolated initiative by domaintools? What is the possible impact on WHMCS? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadWebHosting Posted January 23, 2025 Share Posted January 23, 2025 100% click-bait. You know the registries will not disable whois overnight due to the obvious and immediate impact it would have on registrations. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
