Whois API, LLC stands against human trafficking:
Continuing to work toward the goal of a cybercrime-free Internet, we recently partnered with Aida Kokanovic from the Danish Broadcasting Corporation. With the aid of intelligence provided by WhoisXML API, Aida traced several recruitment ads to actual brothels in Western Europe!
