That's not really a big deal. Unless your friend isn't in the phone book, doesn't have a drivers license, doesn't vote, doesn't have a credit card, doesn't go to school, doesn't have a birth certificate, and a bunch of other stuff, the whois directory entry probably isn't revealing anything that people can find out from other sources. Go to Google and type in your friend's name, or your own. Most people are surprised at what comes up.
The information in a whois database isn't all that dangerous. More dangerous is a paycheck stub or a credit card application that you throw in the trash and somebody steals.
