Hi Ariel The only reason that ALAC would respond to this is that (as stated in link) ICANN will use comments made in evaluating other, similar requests. If ALAC has any comment to make, it would be that removal of a Searchable Whois is in line with the moves to better align requirements on the collection and display of registration data with data retention laws internationally. At most, comments would be a paragraph or two, to provide ALAC’s position in principle that all registration data should not be publicly available and that, in line with the WEG proposals, we should be moving to differentiated access to registration data.

Dear All,
As you may be aware, there is a public comment period on the Removal of Searchable Whois Service From .MEET Registry Agreement, which will close on December 4. The ALAC did not submit a Statement on a public comment of a similar type.
If anyone believes that the ALAC should respond to the aforementioned public comment period, please be so kind to let me and Alan Greenberg know and state your reason. If we do not hear from anyone, this public comment will most likely be marked ‘No Statement’.
Thank You, Ariel
