An additional issue for AOB at our next meeting
by Flip Petillion March 9, 2022

March 9, 2022

Dear All: I propose that we put the following issue as an AOB on the agenda of our next meeting. The incident that generated the letter from the Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Digital Transformation of Ukraine, and the response by G. Marby, raises questions on ICANN’s role at the occasion of certain Internet activities in conflict situations. There is more to this than the question of restricting access to the Internet, the need to act neutral and within ICANN’s core mission. The questions cover a broad scope of legal and ethical considerations that may need to be fully explored. Above all, the security and stability of the Internet and the systems reliant upon it are at risk. The question is: how does ICANN ensure the openness (including accessibility) of the Internet in conflict situations and how does ICANN manage the impact on the security and stability of the Internet? In my humble opinion, this calls for a thorough impact analysis and policies that effectively map, identify and combat forms of abuse as warranted by overarching global security concerns. Ultimately, this approach may set more realistic expectations in the Community. I have not been able to discuss this at the IPC and, hence, the IPC has not been able to express a position on this subject, yet. But I think the discussion is timely. I propose that the GNSO councilors go back to their SGCs and inform the GNSO council if they wish to ask council to consider the impact analysis that I am referring to above.

Re: [council] [CORRESPONDENCE] Maarten Botterman to Manal Ismail and Philippe Fouquart - GAC-GNSO Consultation on Closed Generics
by philippe.fouquart＠orange.com March 7, 2022

March 7, 2022

Hi again everyone, Further to our exchange with GAC earlier today and as additional background: Sebastien, Tomslin, Jeff and I had the opportunity to discuss what such a dialogue with GAC might look like, and in a recent conversation with Goran and exchange with Maarten I mentioned that we'd discussed potential guardrail that could facilitate and guide a tighter and more constructive dialogue - at least one that's likely to converge rather than relitigate the same arguments. As a Council, we may want to discuss these and certainly other ideas. I would also note that I anticipate some of that suggested structure will be incorporated into the framing document being prepared by ICANN org and that's referred to in the letter. We should have the opportunity to discuss this either at our Council call or during wrapup.

FW: [GNSO-Accuracy-ST] FYI - Latest Developing Board Guidance on RDS Accuracy
by Marika Konings March 7, 2022

March 7, 2022

For your information, this is the communication that Manal referenced during the joint GNSO-GAC session. Best regards, Marika From: GNSO-Accuracy-ST <gnso-accuracy-st-bounces(a)icann.org> on behalf of Brian Gutterman <brian.gutterman(a)icann.org> Date: Monday, 7 March 2022 at 18:37 To: "gnso-accuracy-st(a)icann.org" <gnso-accuracy-st(a)icann.org> Subject: [GNSO-Accuracy-ST] FYI - Latest Developing Board Guidance on RDS Accuracy Hi all, FYI As Becky has referenced during our session today, the below was sent to the GAC leadership from Goran yesterday re. some of the latest thinking and discussions of the Board re. registration data accuracy. Best, Brian RE: For GAC Leadership Information – ICANN73 Prep – Latest Board Feedback Planned on Accuracy of Registration Data Dear Manal and GAC Vice-Chairs, As you know, the Board had some productive workshop discussions this weekend regarding continued ICANN org efforts to ensure the accuracy of registration data. As a result of the discussions, further Board guidance has been developed for how to address these issues going forward. The language set forth below has been developed as a guide for further oral discussions the Board may have with community groups during ICANN73. It is likely to be shared Monday during discussions with the GNSO and later in the week during the GAC’s meeting with the ICANN Board. “The ICANN Board first of all would like to highlight its support for continued efforts to ensure the accuracy of registration data. ICANN org continues to advocate for greater clarity from the competent European authorities on several outstanding questions and issues regarding the application of the GDPR to registration data when opportunities arise. The issue of data accuracy is one of the areas that would benefit from greater clarity. In relation to data accuracy, the ICANN Board has requested ICANN org to prepare a number of specific scenarios for which it will consult the EDPB on whether or not ICANN org has a legitimate purpose that is proportionate, i.e., not outweighed by the privacy rights of the individual data subject(s) to request Contracted Parties to provide access to individual records as well as bulk access to registration data in order to review the accuracy of registration data. The ICANN Board is of the view that this clarification will further inform discussions on this topic and will be helpful to address the issue of accuracy, as ICANN org could take further steps like restart the WHOIS ARS. The EC has committed to facilitate ongoing dialogue with the EDPB and European DPAs. We hope the EC will help bring this question to the level of the EDPB. We highlight that the CPs have a responsibility for the accuracy of the data. A Registrant has to provide accurate data to a Contracted Party who has the obligation to confirm that existing accuracy requirements are being met. If a Registrant is found not to meet the obligation to provide accurate data, the registration will be suspended. Furthermore, upon notification by any person of an inaccuracy, including at CPs own initiative, in the contact information associated with a Registered Name sponsored by Registrar, Registrar must take reasonable steps to investigate that claimed inaccuracy. But here is the problem, Registration Data is no longer publicly available which makes it difficult if not impossible to see if the Registrant listed is Mickey Mouse. Even for ICANN org.” Please let me know if I can provide further preparation information for the GAC meeting with the Board later this week. Best, Göran #. #. #
