I didn't object, but I don't think it's an important point, either. I actively oppose any language that tells ICANN to enforce privacy laws. That's the job of governments, not of ICANN.
ICANN: "We're sanctioning you for violating law X."
Registrar: "We didn't violate law X, and besides, it doesn't apply to us."
Actually, we are not talking just about laws, but about whatever privacy policy ICANN might have.
That's fine, but I am still completely opposed to anything that suggests that it's ICANN's job to enforce the law.
If the new ALAC position is that breaches to privacy rights of the registrants are irrelevant and should not be contrasted by ICANN, I would like that to be said clearly.
My position is since about 99.99% of at-large users have never registered a domain and never will, their interest should be most important to us. R's, John
