Hello Benoit,

Why would an organisation need to utilise bulk Whois information in order to 
identify what subnets are "linked" to your organisation? By linked, do you mean 
assigned/allocated? If so, why could this information not be retrieved from 
your organisation's MyAPNIC account? If you're looking for advertisements to 
you from downstream networks, BGP would tell you what routes your network is 
receiving.

There are far more efficient ways  to look for this information than using bulk 
Whois information.

Regards,
Christopher Hawker

Removing information such as email addresses would impact our operations. We 
use this bulk data to identify any subnets linked to our organization by 
looking at specific keywords both in the company name and contact email. As 
this is done by searching the database, bullk data is the only way to complete 
this activity.If you need more info about that activity please contact me in 
private mode.Let me know if you have any other solution to retrieve this bulk 
data with needed info.
