Does the protection that they offer work, in that the user's details are hidden? Would appreciate if you could post an example of a protected domain name. Thank you.

Hi, I managed to find a godaddy domain name that is protected. Here it is: whois.domaintools.com/best-widgets.com– n_kipsJan 19, 2011 at 0:39

Here's an example of a Domains By Proxy registration ala GoDaddy at DomainTools:
Registrant: Domains by Proxy, Inc.
DomainsByProxy.com 15111 N. Hayden
Rd., Ste 160, PMB 353 Scottsdale,
Arizona 85260 United States
(for my registration of hadeanllc.com)
It works to keep WHOIS users out. But if law enforcement or a court wants to find you they can order your registrar to disclose your details. Here is a sample output:
Administrative Contact: Domain Discreet ATTN: (removed).com Rua Dr. Brito Camara, n 20, 1 Funchal, Madeira 9000-039 PT Phone: 1-902-7495331 Email: [email protected]
If you are directly allowed to manage your domain by godaddy then there must be an option to hide this information...
