In 2004 policy proposal 2003-3 became:

http://www.arin.net/policy/nrpm.html#four237
Number Resource Policy Manual section 
"4.2.3.7.6 Residential Customer Privacy"
To maintain the privacy of their residential customers, an organization
with downstream residential customers may substitute that organization's
name for the customer's name, e.g. 'Private Customer - XYZ Network', and
the customer's street address may read 'Private Residence'. Each private
downstream residential reassignment must have accurate upstream Abuse
and Technical POCs visible on the WHOIS record for that block.

Similar policies exist for IPv6 and rWHOIS (section 3.2).

I was going to make a joke about being so responsive we alter
time to meet your needs, but I couldn't find a way to make sure
it didn't sound sarcastic (which it wasn't).  Anyway, does this
help?
