Subject: [bc-gnso] FOR REVIEW: draft BC comment on study of Whois misuse
ICANN posted a Study on Whois Misuse.
Back in 2009 the BC prompted this study to learn whether "Public access to WHOIS data leads to a measurable degree of misuse – that is, to actions that cause actual harm, are illegal or illegitimate, or otherwise contrary to the stated legitimate purpose."
We discussed this study on our 5-Dec member call. Three BC members volunteered to review and draft comments on the study (Jimson Olufuye, Susan Kawaguchi, John Berard).
As discussed on our 9-Jan call, their proposed comment is brief and should be easy for members to do an expedited review before ICANN's due date of 18-Jan-2014.
So please review the attached and REPLY ALL with your comments or objections before 18-Jan-2014.
Thanks again to Jimson, Susan, and John for stepping-up to this.
Best,
Steve DelBianco
Vice chair for policy coordination
