DC5 WHOIS aggregates third-party data. It is a lookup helper, not an authoritative registry, not a court, and not a substitute for RDAP/WHOIS at the source.

Registration data

Domain and IP records come from RDAP, fallback WHOIS, DNS and local RIR/IANA/PSL snapshots. Those sources can be stale, redacted (GDPR/privacy proxy), incomplete or wrong. Availability badges are heuristics (for example RDAP “not found” or an unregistered ENS name), not a right to register the name.

Reputation

Local reputation is evidence from downloaded lists (Spamhaus DROP, FireHOL, URLhaus and an operator list). A match is not a determination that a host is malicious. An empty result is not a clean bill of health. Verdicts are not credit scores and must not be used as the sole basis to deny service to a person.

GeoIP

City/country from a local MMDB is an approximation. It can be wrong for anycast, VPNs, CGNAT and documentation prefixes. This product includes GeoLite2 data created by MaxMind, available from https://www.maxmind.com.

Web3 names

ENS, Unstoppable, SPACE ID and Handshake results depend on the operator’s RPC provider and Handshake resolver. Reorgs, custom errors, missing resolvers and unregistered names are possible. Look-alike warnings, mail-security grades and anonymizer tags are heuristics from public data, not verdicts. Contenthashes are pointers only; this console does not fetch arbitrary IPFS content by default.

No professional advice

Nothing on this site is legal, tax, investment or cybersecurity certification advice. DC5 is not responsible for actions taken from a lookup result.
