I agree. There were rumours a while back. See, for example:
http://schestowitz.com/Weblog/archives/2005/10/23/c-block-penalty/
This is somewhat adverse to common sense however. Ultimately, such rumours
were quietly falsified.
Bear in mind that Google patented a method for looking at whois records to
know which sites belong to who. Anonymous registrations, however (formerly
.us and also GoDaddy), prevent this from becoming a reliable tool and
discriminant.
Best wishes,
