Read the Revised ICANN Procedure for Handling Whois Conflicts with Privacy Law: Assessment and Next Steps[icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_en_syste…> [PDF, 159 KB]. This paper is available for public comment through 12 June 2017. Feedback will be incorporated into a report of public comments and provided to the Generic Names Supporting Organization (GNSO) Council for their review and consideration. Comment on the Revised ICANN Procedure for Handling Whois Conflicts with Privacy Law: Assessment and Next Steps[icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_public-2…>. In accordance with the ICANN Procedure for Handling Whois Conflicts with Privacy Law (Whois Procedure)[icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_resource…>, this paper opens a review process to gather community input on the effectiveness of the revised Whois Procedure, which was made effective on 18 April 2017. Furthermore, as requested by the GNSO Council, ICANN is publishing this paper to provide analysis of and solicit community input on the practicality and feasibility of the triggers, as well as suggestions for moving forward with the review. Outputs from this assessment and comment process are expected to inform the next periodic review of the procedure. The Whois Procedure has recently been updated, although no ICANN-accredited registrar or registry operator to date has formally invoked the procedure. As a result, this analysis is based solely on community discussions and input received during the previous review[gnso.icann.org]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__gnso.icann.org_en_draf…> [PDF, 155 KB], which related to allowing for evaluation of an additional trigger for invoking the procedure. It also draws upon ICANN's experience administering other processes where a contracted party is seeking ICANN's approval for new services, or waiving certain contractual requirements, as a point of comparison for the implementation of the procedure. About ICANN ICANN's mission is to help ensure a stable, secure and unified global Internet.
