Dear Olivier and Colleagues, I am requesting that the Chair take action on the attached item. To summarize a contracted party to ICANN is employing an proven invalid privacy service for its registrants. This is not my research alone but has been validated and confirmed by journalists at the Washington Post (see: http://www.washingtonpost.com/business/technology/how-violent-porn-sites-man age-to-hide-information-that-should-be-public/2013/12/06/e0861378-3773-11e3- ae46-e4248e75c8ea_story_4.html). The registrar in question has been aware of the issue for over 2 years. Because of the scale of the issue and in the interests of transparency I am requesting this be logged as an official ALAC matter with At-Large staff and be forwarded to ICANN Compliance by the ALAC Chair for investigation. Please contact me with any questions. -Garth ------------------------------------- Garth Bruen gbruen@knujon.com 617-947-3805 http://www.knujon.com Chair of ICANN At-Large North America (naralo.org) http://www.linkedin.com/pub/4/149/724 Blog: http://www.digitalcitizensalliance.org/cac/alliance/blog.aspx?ident=garth Twitter: @Knujon "If history is deprived of the Truth, we are left with nothing but an idle, unprofitable tale" -Polybius
