Hello again everyone please find attached the latest version of this Sub Team¹s Public Comment Review Tool, dated 4 August (today). As noted previously, this version incorporates: (1) all the additional comments made in response to the WG¹s preliminary recommendations #1-9 but that directly addressed Annex E issues (which have therefore been moved to this Sub Team¹s Tool from the overall WG Tool); and (2) a row each for the Respect Our Privacy emails and another for the Save Domain Privacy petition. I¹ve highlighted all the additions in yellow for ease of comparison to/reference with the previous version of the Tool from last week (in case you have already begun working off that document). You can easily remove the yellow highlights. Note also that instead of giving a specific count for the Respect Our Privacy emails, I¹ve used a ballpark figure. This is because, even with the various Excel spreadsheets and tabular sorting that we are working with (courtesy of ICANN IT and Tucows/Graeme), I¹m concerned that we may have missed a few here and there, or counted some as ³false positives² of a sort. I¹m therefore using a rounded-off figure that I think we can all comfortably stand by. I hope this is helpful.

Thanks again, Todd, Kathy, Holly and everyone this is just a note to follow up on one portion of the discussion during the WG call earlier today. I¹ll be going through the current WG Public Comment Review Tool (Part 1, covering the WG¹s preliminary recommendations #1 through #9) to pick out those additional comments that, though ³attached² to a different recommendation or question, is actually more directly relevant to the scope of this Sub Team. What this means, I¹m afraid, is that there will most likely be an updated version of the Sub Team¹s Review Tool (i.e. the Word document that you¹re working off of). I will try to get that to you all as soon as I possibly can with the caveat that as I complete preparation of the WG Tool Part 2 (covering the remainder of the WG¹s preliminary recommendations except for those being covered by the Sub Teams) there may yet be further updates.
I¹m happy to help update any existing summary documents you may already have as a result, of course, and, Todd, to your point about adding an extra row to the existing Tool to reflect the Save Domain Privacy comment in their petition, I¹m happy to do that (per Kathy¹s suggestion on the call today) while I¹m doing the current update anyway.
Thanks and cheers Mary

Thanks Kathy and Holly. Just to summarize where I think we are (and again, I¹ve been working backward from what Sub-team 1.3.2 presented last week, which I¹ve attached I assume that what our sub-team will present next week will look something like that):
· First there will be a paragraph (or bullet point or however we want to style it) discussing those comments that argued that the WG¹s proposed accreditation standards should hold that P/P Providers can never disclose and/or publish under any circumstances. This section will discuss: how many of those comments were there, who did they come from, what did they argue.
· Next there will be a paragraph discussing those comments that argued that the WG¹s proposed accreditation standards should hold that P/P Providers can only disclose and/or publish following a court order, subpoena, or other legal process. Again, this section will discuss: how many of those comments were there, who did they come from, what did they argue, etc. I agree with Kathy that the ³Respect our Privacy² submissions should be analyzed in this paragraph. I also agree with Holly¹s point though that in this paragraph we should note that the ³Respect our Privacy² submissions took a more extreme position than others (like Google¹s, for example), in that they argued that P/P Providers can only disclose and/or publish following a court order, and didn¹t accept that other legal or ICANN-recognized processes (such as a UDRP for example) could suffice.
· Next there will be a paragraph discussing those comments that argued that our WG¹s proposed accreditation standards should hold that P/P Providers can sometimes disclose and/or publish absent a court order, subpoena, or other legal process, but then offered thoughts as to whether and how the Disclosure Framework outlined in Annex E ought to be modified. My plan for this paragraph was to first have a general summary of whose comments fell in this category. And I agree with Kathy that the Save Domain Privacy petition signatories fit here, in that ³verifiable evidence of wrongdoing² is what II(A), (B), and (C) of Annex E contemplate. Following that summary, my plan was then to list each proposed change to the language of Annex E (perhaps in a bullet point format), followed by who recommended it, and what their arguments were for it. That said, I disagree with Kathy that each of those comments and all of those suggested changes will necessarily be to a ³higher standard.² From my initial review, I think the comments are going to recommend changes in both directions, which we ought to reflect in the summary.
· Finally there will be a paragraph discussing those comments that we¹re not sure what to do with.
That¹s how I see our task anyway. So far we have Sara and Holly writing the first draft of the first two paragraphs, me and Kathy writing the third, and Darcy writing the fourth (though of course we can all edit the final before it goes to the entire WG). Let me know if anybody else wants to join. And with that, my quick thoughts on some of the bigger-picture points below:
· Given that our summary will only be on what commenters said about Annex E, and given that Annex E doesn¹t touch on LE requests, my thought is that we should leave analysis of comments on LE to the other sub-teams (I¹m pretty sure LE would fall in both sub-team 1 and sub-team 4¹s work). Not that I¹m not interested in LE just that we have plenty of work as it is, without duplicating work that is being handled by other sub-teams.
· In response to Mary¹s email (attached): I agree that I¹m not sure that I see the utility of adding the form-based submissions to the compiled template/matrix Word doc. As I understand it, the attached Word doc is just a tool to help us get to our final work product, which is the summary presentation to the rest of the WG. If we make a point to discuss the form-based submissions in our summary presentation to the rest of the WG (which, as I noted above, we¹re certainly planning to do), then I don¹t see why we¹d need to add columns to the attached Word doc for each of those. I mean, if somebody wants to take the time to do so, that¹s fine. I just don¹t see how that helps us get to our final work product.
· Finally, one quick point: I see our sub-team¹s role, and the role of the summary that we are to present to the entire WG next week, as purely descriptive. In other words: what did the comments say? To the extent that there is going to be any normative or substantive discussion that goes one step beyond that OK, this is what the comments said, but now what do we do about that? I think that has to be left to the entire WG to debate after we present our summary. I¹m just throwing out that reminder b/c I think it will help keep our work easier.
Thanks all!

Hi All, I support the division of comments into buckets as Todd has created and Holly has revised. Do we have four buckets now? Below (and preceeded by "==>") I show where the two large groups of missing comments might go. Tx!
Hi Everyone
First- sorry not to follow up sooner. And Todd - I agree with the refined break up into three buckets- with an additional element or so.
The first category is clearly no, not ever, under any circumstances. All that is needed from us is to count the comments and where they are from.
==> So bucket one, no disclosure ever.
The second is one I¹d like to expand a bit - and see where that gets us. As Todd and I suggest, it is a category that specifically states the need for a legal process. (it is framed variously as court order court process, Subpoena) My suggestion is that the overall heading is no reveal unless there has been a legal process of some sort in the relevant jurisdiction. The wrinkle here is that, under an ICANN dispute resolution process (e.g., UDRP) where details of the customer would be revealed. Given this is a recognised ICANN process in which details are already revealed, my suggestion is to characterise th category in that way. ==> Bucket Two, disclosure of data to private parties and law enforcement only subject to court order. This is where the "Respect our Privacy" thousands of individual submissions fits: "No one¹s personal information should be revealed without a court order, regardless of whether the request comes from a private individual or law enforcement agency². (Mary, do we happen to have a final count of these individual submission?)
My reading of both categories is to say that Annex E is not necessary for either. (and Kathy - the comments you refer to below would fit into the first or second basket)
The third category is the only one that goes beyond what is already required to suggest there may be other circumstances where the contact details of the customer would be revealed to a third party that is either not part of an ICANN process or a court process. And the challenge will be to work through what those situations are.
==> Bucket Three (formerly Two) is now the one that accepts the premise of Annex E, as Holly and Todd have laid out, but offers thoughts on how to change the Disclosure Framework to the higher standards requested by commenters. The question for me is what bucket the 11,000 Save Domain Privacy petition signatories fit in: they wrote "Privacy providers should not forced to reveal my private information without verifiable evidence of wrongdoing." Can Annex E be revised to raise the standard to require "verifiable evidence of wrongdoing" w/o a court order? If so, what changes must be made in Annex E to meet this higher standard? If not, do these 11,000+ petition signatures really belong in [revised] Bucket 2, court order? I look forward to our discussions ahead!
My next query is where we put Law Enforcement Agency requests. If they have a warrant, I¹d suggest that we put them in the second category - in most jurisdictions, warrants are not granted without some kind of judicial oversight. Without a warrant (or some judicial oversight), requests by Law Enforcement/Security requests would be under some kind of Annex.
==> Holly, do I understand right that this might be a new Bucket Four - LE w/o CO -- Law Enforcement w/o Court Order. I think it makes sense and I would like to see where the comments fall on this issue. Plus Annex E is only for private individuals/private attorneys/private companies. So now seems to be a good time to break out informal LE requests into its own category.
I²ll be having a look at that third category
My other way of looking at this issue is whether or not the relevant p/p provider must make some sort of judgment call. For the first category - the answer is a simple NO. For the second category, there is either some sort of judicially approved document for that jurisdiction or an approved ICANN process - or not. It is only in the third category that the providers must make a judgment call on whether the requirements are met, or not.
==> Quick note, we still need the miscellaneous bucket that Todd created for "unclear" bucket, so [renamed] Bucket Five = unclear? Best, Kathy
Happy to discuss
Holly

Hi Mary and All, Glad to be with you on this subteam 3 and looking forward to our discussion.
Mary, I was very glad to see that Turner Broadcasting comments had been included in this comment summary. Let me ask about the 10,000+ comments we received, the vast majority entitled: ICANN- Respect Our Privacy. All of these comments contain a clear call: - No one¹s personal information should be revealed without a court order, regardless of whether the request comes from a private individual or law enforcement agency.
Sorry if I missed it, but is this call from so many thousands of commenters for not disclosing p/p data to a private individual (which would include a private lawyer) reflected in our comment summary tool?
Best and tx, Kathy
:
Dear all,
Please find an updated Word document that now INCLUDES the extensive comments from Turner Broadcasting System (once again, thanks for spotting this omission, Todd!). They have been inserted into ROW 19 for the first question/topic (General Comments) on PAGE 16, and ROW 7 for the second question/topic (Specific Comments on the Framework Language) on PAGE 39.
Apologies again for the inadvertent omission they have been added to these rows and pages simply to retain the chronology of when they were received, to maintain consistency across all the templates. I¹ll update the Sub Team wiki page accordingly.
Thanks and cheers

Hello Todd and everyone,
Welcome to the Sub Team 3 (Annex E) mailing list!
Todd - I think you just found an omission from staff (me), for which I apologize. I definitely had the Turner comment in my compilation of comments and documents, but I think what happened is that in formatting the table for the Word document I somehow managed to edit that out. I am very sorry, and thanks for noting it! This is exactly why staff welcomes WG members¹ questions, and why we emphasize that our compilation/edits don¹t replace WG members¹ reading the comments themselves if possible. At the same time, I do hope you all know that we try our best to do as thorough and comprehensive a job as possible, so a combination of our efforts and a WG¹s/Sub Team¹s eagle eyes is the best arrangement.
Basically, we read through all the comments that appeared to address specific recommendations and/or open questions, and we also read all the online template responses that do the same. The Word document is therefore the compilation of all of these, tailored to each Sub Team (or the full WG, as appropriate). I¹ve taken a quick look through my documents/collected comments and don¹t believe I have missed out any others; however, I will do a more thorough check shortly on all the Word documents I¹ve compiled to date for all the Sub Teams, just to be sure.
On the approach - from the staff perspective, Todd¹s suggested approach seems to make sense, and would align pretty well with what we ourselves would probably have suggested. You could start with two smaller groups to tackle the two categories suggested, based on Todd¹s initial sweep, and in doing so also note any comments that didn¹t address either so that they can either be referred to the appropriate Sub Team (if any) or considered by the full WG (if appropriate).
BTW, Todd, maybe it¹s my machine or more likely that I haven¹t looked through it in detail, but I¹m not seeing your comments/additions/edits in the document you circulated . ?
Thanks for kicking things off, and do let me know if you need assistance from staff in any way!
Cheers
Mary
