The EU Toolbox Against Counterfeiting is part of the EC's Intellectual Property (IP) Action Plan. The initiative seeks to step up the fight against counterfeiting by clarifying the roles and responsibilities of rights holders, intermediaries, and public authorities with respect to mutual cooperation and data sharing. It is especially aimed at enhancing cooperation between parties. Intermediaries are identified as social media platforms, the domain name ecosystem, payment services, and the transport and logistics industries. Read more. REMINDER: Request for Input - GNSO Statement of Interest The GNSO Council has recently embarked on a review of its Statement of Interest (SOI) requirements to determine whether these are still fit for purpose, and if not, what updates should be considered. To this end, the GNSO SOI Task Force (TF) was formed. As part of its assignment, the TF is reaching out to the ICANN community to solicit input on the current use and experience with SOIs as well as suggestions for possible improvements. We understand that some of you may use the SOI, either in its current form or a modified format, for your own purposes. We would be interested to hear about those experiences as well as any lessons learned that may help inform our recommendations. You are encouraged to share this information with your respective groups. To provide input, please complete the following survey by Wednesday, 4 May at the latest. Your input will be much appreciated!
