    Open a WHOIS data finder tool. WHOIS is a query and response protocol that is widely used for querying databases that store the registered users or assignees of an Internet resource, such as a domain name, an IP address block, or an autonomous system. It is also used for a wider range of other information. There are many WHOIS data finder tools on the internet, e.g. "Who.is", "whois data API", and "ICANN WHOIS".
