ICANN Files Legal Action in Germany to Preserve WHOIS Data

https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2018-05-25-en There is a definite information asymmetry between the GNSO Council and ICANN org at the moment. This was not a spontaneous decision; it has clearly been in the works for weeks. I don't see how we can even contemplate launching an ePDP when we are not aware of all the actions that ICANN is up to behind the scenes vis-à-vis WHOIS. —Ayden

Thanks Ayden – so no further forward. (An unfortunate reference to the artist formally known at WP29 though). Anyone have any insights on next steps?

- Replace "MUST collect admin-c/tech-c" with "MAY collect" in the temp spec. - Add an admin-c/tech-c consent mechanism that could read like this "If registrar offer to collect admin-c/tech-c information, consent MUST be sought from the data subjects to processing of PII" (example: registrant says that rubensk@nic.br <mailto:rubensk@nic.br> is the admin contact of example.com <http://example.com/>; registrar sends e-mails to rubensk@nic.br <mailto:rubensk@nic.br> to confirm consent) Rubens
