Dear Valentina,
thanks for this excellent contribution.
As you mention, the public comment period is open until end of
business day today... I really do not know why the ALAC comment
period also closes on the same day - but this is all coming in at
the very last moment.
I have CC'ed Holly Raiche & Carlton Samuels (as well as ALAC
Chair Alan Greenberg & ALAC Policy Staff) to see if your
organisation's comments can be taken into account, perhaps with ALAC
asking for a few more days from Mary Wong in order to formulate a
response.
Alas I have no say in the matter / process or substance. :-)
Kindest regards,
Olivier
ps. my thoughts about the matter of WHOIS Privacy & Proxy is
that WHOIS has become inappropriate for the task it is asked to
perform. I am flabbergasted that the work of the Expert Working
Group on gTLD Directory Services, published on
https://www.icann.org/news/blog/ewg-recommends-a-replacement-for-whois
is actually not being taken into account. It would save a lot of
time from volunteers wasting time with WHOIS privacy/proxy now.

Dear At-Large Community Members,
Please find attached ApTI's comment regarding ICANN's WHOIS
privacy/proxy services proposal.
We believe the new policy
presents
a serious danger to freedom of speech, privacy and to the
rule of law on the Internet and we urge ICANN not to adopt
this proposal.
We
are also working on publishing a summary of our comment.
Thank
you,
