Eek! Subject, of course, to due process, the full protection of human rights, et al, ja?
Hi John, I didn't know that as gnso councillors we are supposed to act as auxiliary agents for law enforcement... Best, Rafik Dammak "fight for the users" 2012/2/8 <john@crediblecontext.com>
I, too, think SOPA falls outside our scope. Our mission ought to be to ensure that the DNS (and WhoIs) allows law enforcement to find those who commit crimes, not to decide what is a crime.

Councillors,
Please find below an email chain starting with a message from the ALAC Chair. Thanks to Wolf for keeping me honest and reminding me that I had forgotten to copy the Council here ;)

Jeff, I personally agree - with the knowledge I have so far.
Nevertheless I expect different views from councillors. And I think the
GNSO should be prepared just in case such a forum is going to be organized in Costa Rica.
The ccNSO chair has answered to Olivier's request in favour. I think
the GNSO chair should send an answer, too, based on GNSO discussions.
Kind regards Wolf-Ulrich

I have been keeping quiet about this on other lists, but no I do not believe this is an issue for the GNSO Council to discuss. This is a matter that effects national law and would represent a complete side track during the weekend from official GNSO business.

I wonder whether the GNSO could refrain from such a forum in San José. Is SOPA (and PIPA) effecting our policy work or not? I think a GNSO representative should participate in such a discussion. Should we put this on the GNSO weekend agenda in San José, too? Maybe there is interest in discussing the item with the GAC ?!
Kind regards Wolf-Ulrich

Dear SO/AC Chairs,
a recent discussion on an ALAC call led to the question whether the ICANN community might be interested in holding a session in San José, to discuss the aspects of the SOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act) and how it might affect ICANN policies that were reached through consensus.
I am writing to you all to find out of this is something which your community might be interested in. As we are currently finalising schedules, it would be helpful to find out your community's views ASAP.
Warmest regards,
Olivier
