I wouldn't expend much time worrying about that - it's generally information that is readily available anyway (name, address, phone number) - it's not as if they ask you for bank info, your credit card numbers or your SIN! Fraud and identity theft are not likely to occur from warranty registration. The internet doesn't even need to be...
