Hi Avri This is one of the issues discussed by the WHOIS Review team. As to eligibility for use, what was being discussed was: Eligibility for use of a privacy service: Should it be confined to a natural non-trading person only or include not-for-profits (e.g., women s refuges) and how to define/confine the parameters So the issue recognised and is being taken seriously Kind regards Holly Raiche h.raiche@internode.on.net On 24/12/2011, at 4:17 PM, Avri Doria wrote:
Hi,
There is a grey area. Some institutions, e.g shelters for abused women's and children's, may need the same privacy protection as individuals. The same could be said for advocacy groups in countries that don't accept a notion of advocacy.

No concerns, I fully support this as-is. Thanks, Alan.
Is it worth referring to "privacy" concerns as being that of "personal privacy"? I haven't heard anyone, even the privacy advocates amongst us, suggesting that corporate bodies -- especially for-profit and governmental -- be allowed to hide themselves using a thick (or even thin) WHOIS.

The revised version of the statement based on comment submitted has been posted at https://community.icann.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=30345624.
Aside from stylistic changes, the only two substantive changes were:
- In sub-item 1, the intent of the statement needed to be clarified as suggested by Eduardo. - Sub-item 3 was added based on a comment I made early in the process with no one disputing it.
Of the other suggestions, they generally were:
- counter to community input in the earlier round of e-mail comments; - supported but did not change what was already in the draft statement; or - were issues related to the substantive discussion of whether the change from thin to thick should be made, the subject of the PDP if one should be started, but was not required in this vetting of the Preliminary Issue Report.
If you have any concerns with this final statement, please contact me.
