Hello Susan.

 

 

- At the end of the day consumer protection, insuring that the domain name system is safe and secure, should be one of our highest priorities.

 

 

I agree with you that consumer protection is a justifiable and proper rationale for the creation and extension of intellectual monopoly rights and has been deemed so in Anglo-American jurisprudence, at least, since the Bakers Marking Law of 1266. We may on occasion disagree with the structure and scope of such rights but I'm delighted there seems to be some practical agreement on the purpose of the rights themselves.

 

 

-We could restructure the list 

 

International law which includes the following: 

     Data protection

     Privacy

     Consumer rights

     Human rights

     Competition law

     Intellectual property law

 

 

I think this is a fine and practical proposal that I support.

 

Thanks so much for your contribution.

 

Regards,

 

Ed
