Neither You nor Andrés or any other person of its region, to part of president of the General Assembly, Carlton Samuels, had been previously informed on the events. It is certain that Carlos Aguirre had itself official notice with the personnel on the subject of the selection of the president, nevertheless, its commentary talked about only the used mathematical formula and not to the story of the votes in himself. The error in thecount was detected by the personnel of AT-Large when listening the auditory recording of the Asemblea General and at no moment was any exerted external pressure stops to influence our actions. On the contrary, our only motivationwas that error, once identified, properly was communicated to the region. With respect to the fact that there was no a service of simultaneous interpretation during this teleconferencing, we would wish to remember that the error to him in count was detected only two days before the monthly teleconferencing of LACRALO and, consequently, the minimum term required to request the service of interpretation it did not give the time us sufficient to beable to offer to him this service. What we tried to communicate to him in this teleconferencing was simply fact that it had happened an error in the count and that the president presiding over the General Assembly east day was going to communicate shortly with region to inform it on the steps to follow. During this teleconferencing, we had the printing that this had been understood a to weigh of the fact that a service of interpretation done by a member of our personnel cannot compare itself with a service by professionals of interpretation. We offer our excuses to him if that made difficult his understanding. We hoped that the present explanation helps him.

I emphasize that during the last weeks I have chosen to remain in silence, privileging the institutional health of the LACRALO like collective being, by on individualities. Without damage of it, and in view of the inaccuracies detected in the report that are prepared, I feel forced to carry out a series of explanations: In the report data of extreme importance and relevance are omitted that do that the facts happened they disten much of the chronology contained in the same one. In 1ª place has been avoided to include (without reason it pretends), that also appeared the power of AUI Peru, that sent their mandate in impeccable form, sending one to him to its agent chief executive (Mr. Sergio Bronstein de Internauta Venezuela), with copy to Mr. Carlton Samuels, same he gave himself thus, taking care of that the same one does not fall into the hands of a same person who be judge and part in the assembly, to leave doubts of his legitimacy. Also, the other three powers that arrived at the same person who was president of assembly, was not exhibited to anybody, and simply it communicated by electronic mail the existence of these powers (why copy was not sent to him toanother participant stops that of faith of such). It seemed to be that, when exhibiting links to mails sent by Carlton Samuels, one looks for to guarantee the message in himself, and not the mandate freed by those organizations nor who it was made according to the norms of the LACRALO. Also she omitted herself to mention in the report that proclaimed a winner indeed of selections, (that are exactly who subscribes, Sergio Saline I carry), and that I was put in functions immediately once finished the selection. As of this moment, I acted formally like president of the LACRALO, as much in the meetingof ICANN of Mexico, like time later through regional contacts with different organizations. On the other hand, desire to also emphasize that - in an attitude at least questionable in his transparency - to see e-mails that adjunto[i ] -, summoned me to a teleconferencing in as I was the unique one who did not know that the legitimacy of my presidency was questioned. teleconferencing was in English language, without simultaneoustranslation, and my capacity stops to understand the problem and to present/display the corresponding defenses severely were limited. In fact, I asked for repeated times that were explained to me with clarity of which they spoke Mr. Nick Ashton Hart and Andrés Piazza, since he could not understand them. Immediately afterwards Matthias Langenegger informed to me that it had to leave my position (or that at least believed to understand) since the staff had defined that the president was Andrés Piazza (never was nobody it said to me that there was a count of votes and that we had to send supervise for this, nor that the ICANN personnel was the one who had to dismiss tome and to put in functions to another one person who not outside the one who outside proclaimed president in a General Assembly, in agreement with the norms of the LACRALO). Also I must emphasize that, hours later another teleconferencing had been prepared in which participated some ALSs - although without counting on the necessary quorum -, in which it was not allowed me to exert the presidency of the LACRALO in violent, discriminatory form and with I mistreat, headed by Mr. Carlton Samuels, that, in spiteof not having capacity in order to preside over the assembly - then that function corresponded to me to me, at least until the subject was properly debated by a new General Assembly. These facts show that after the first teleconferencing to that I make reference, I was displaced of the position for that validly I was chosen by theAssembly, without to consult the decision with this device, and only from the decision of the ICANN staff. These facts have an extreme institutional gravity, as much by the distance of norms that we have consensuado, like inasmuch as they represent a clear and direct interference of the staff in questions that must be debated by the ALSs members of THIN. The complaints of Mr. Carlos Aguirre and Mr. Andrés Piazza were directed to the Staff in place of a the assembly - since it had corresponded -. Insteadof dale to the subject the channel correct, it was chosen to solve the problem of a way in opposition to the rules of the LAC THIN Nótese that I have omitted - with effort - to make any reference in a personal view on the happened thing. Desire to show, nevertheless, that it had wished to be treated in one it forms but right and respectful during this traumatic process. I hope that the present is of utility to remember some questions in their chronology, and to cover omissions - surely involuntary - with its report.I solicit to them that they accompany this note and its associates with the same one, every time thecircumstances you decipher here the ALAC and the members of the LACRALO must be considered by.

Fwd: Derek Smythe and Vittorio Bertolo on Internet Fraud and the intersection with ICANN
by Carlton Samuels April 9, 2009

April 9, 2009

Here under a very interesting exchange on Internet security and the perceptions of the discussants of ICANN's role. It at least makes for interesting reading, in my opinion. Carlton Samuels ======================================================================== 1. Re: [At-Large] Open letter to ICANN (Derek Smythe) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message: 1 Date: Tue, 07 Apr 2009 20:23:13 +0200 From: Derek Smythe <derek(a)aa419.org> Subject: Re: [RAA-WG] [At-Large] Open letter to ICANN To: raa-wg(a)atlarge-lists.icann.org Cc: Vittorio Bertola <vb(a)bertola.eu> Message-ID: <49DB9A11.1050303(a)aa419.org> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Vittorio, I disagree and agree. Understanding what is happening here depends on the depth of understanding. Sorry, this reply is longer much, much longer than anticipated. I will touch on some deeper realities not known to those who often work with these same issues. Vittorio Bertola wrote: > Derek Smythe ha scritto: >> Hi .... > I think you are making a fundamental mistake here - you want a frauding > website taken down by ICANN because it has incorrect Whois information. > What you should want is rather that a frauding website is taken down by > its country's police because it violates its country's laws.

Legitimate businesses do not gather this > type of information without security precautions". If you received a phishing email, would you make an assumption about it if it asked you to log in to your account at some strange location? In one of the examples given - safe-wayonline, no assumptions are required. Reports are not based on "quick looks". The official legal entities publish more than enough data to verify that this website is not legitimate. The same resources can be used to verify it is abusing another real company's registration number. A third official one states that other websites has stolen the company registration and abuses it on their sites, targeting jewelry auctions. More than enough reports of attempted fraud and fraud are available online. Ask a bank or similar financial services provider or even a financial regulator what would happen if they were to suddenly start doing banking or similar without at least using some security protocol like https. I agree partly - no, it is not ICANN's task to take down scam websites, but where evidence as per ICANN advisory dated 3 April 2003 is available, this an issue for prompt action. That responsibility lies with the registrar. ICANN is to ensure this is done and is covered under security and stability of the internet, also trust in the internet. As for the mentioned Godaddy domains, the true owner of the address denies any knowledge of the registrant. ICANN was also made aware of this. Other domains by the same registrant still exist with a fictitious addresses; example NATWSECMAIL.INFO. How would you judge http://ubsflorida.homelandssecurities.com ? The answer would be to judge it via the whois and circumstances. In this case this is history repeating itself for the N-th time; http://db.aa419.org/fakebankslist.php?psearch=BHFINDONESIA.COM ... using payment processor Graphcard.com in whois to register a domain with 007names.com, despite Graphcard not accepting responsibility and 007Names being made aware of this. http://forum.aa419.org/viewtopic.php?t=29427 Yet I have personally phoned Joyce at 007names a few months ago who ignored my emails where I explained what was happening. She then asked I send her another email. The result is there for all to see. We have headless bank spoofs running around with the registered address owner not accepting responsibility. I could probably write a ten page "summary" on this - but I will spare you ;) Sorry for the elaborate examples, but the bottom line is that judgments are not made lightly. There are many tests a domain must fail before it can be declared fraudulent. In fact many domains are monitored for months before revealing their true nature. Understanding the situation makes the situation extremely predictable. I wish to welcome to kdbuk.com which was monitored for over nine months. If I was a betting man I would have been rich. Without ever showing web content, I could tell you what it was. I note it references NATWSECMAIL.INFO for email. It's a small world, but once again I will spare you a ten page summary :) However, the bottom line is these domains use fake whois details, or abuse privacy mechanisms like the last example. This IS covered in the RAA. > > I would also be very concerned if ICANN started to disable domain names > on the grounds that "the postal code entered is incorrect". As explained, the postal code is the smallest part of it. It should have been verified before November 2008 if the system was working. But it does raise a red flag - why was it not investigated? At least we owe an answer to the later victims of this scam. > > However, I concur with the letter that the WDPRS is a useless service > that appears to have been deployed more as a token effort than for real. > I think it should just be dropped - if people suspect that a website is > doing fraud, they should call the police, not ICANN.

The sad fact is the world currently does not have enough trained police resources to look at each and every domain trying to scam internet users. Jurisdiction is also a problem. Anonymous proxies etc do not help. The same facilities legitimate internet users provide to protect their privacy are the same ones internet criminals use. Right now pre-paid American debit/gift cards are being sold in Africa (in a country nobody wants to deal with) complete with fake American address and used extensively for registering domains. I am not saying law enforcement do not do the best, in fact the opposite! Given the bad registration info, the are doing brilliantly udner the circumstances despite ICANN and the registrars. We find doors being kicked down in the early hours of the morning half way around the world to the victims. A small example: Netherlands, Romania etc, but this is only the tip of the iceberg. Sadly some countries try and improve their image without resolving real issues that affects the rest of the world. This is a reality we have to accept and build upon. However, the golden rule of internet fraud from a victim perspective: When the money is lost, it is lost forever. Personally I believe more money is stolen through fraud on the internet, than made by registrars and ICANN. Nobody knows the true extent of it and costs. > > ICANN, in any case, should care more about Internet fraud and be more > cooperative - but possibly by referring these (very valid and important) > complaints to the appropriate law enforcement agencies depending on the > countries involved.

The people that know about ICANN and try and use the systems. Do you think Brenda who originally reported safe-wayonline.com will give ICANN another chance?

Sergio Salinas Porto's comments on the Chronology of Events pertaining to the election of LACRALO Chair
by Carlton Samuels April 8, 2009

April 8, 2009

Dear Sergio: The translation provided by the list is particularly hard on your Spanish text. So in order to ensure that I have the best sense of the meaning of your comments, I have used the Google translation engine to render your response into English. This effort follows my response. The procedure for proxy voting was placed on the list more than *one month* before the GA. If you thought the Secretariat was not competent or honest to receive notification for a proxy as per the procedure, you had a duty of care to address it in a timely manner. That you did not is again evidence of your own meagre contribution to the substantive work of LACRALO over these many years. If you had a concern on the procedure itself as was recorded on the list, it is not recorded before now. This is evidence of your lack of attention or understanding of the substantive work of LACRALO, even when the details are presented. It is late in the day and clearly in effort of this campaign of yours to collect another "presidential" ribbon. But it is not a good sign for your ambitions. Every single member has had a chance to audit their votes. And all the votes are validated, including the proxies. I therefore take personal exception to what seems like implied malfeasance to my work as both Secretariat of LACRALO and Presiding Officer at the GA. This is evidence of a lack of intellectual rigour and personal integrity. Becasue it seems that when it is convenient, you appeal to my good office and standing in the community to enable your agenda. But in your zeal to be "el Presidente", my good name is being tarnished. So you know, these are well beneath my contempt. The University of the West Indies was the only Caribbean vote in your favor at the GA. My Caribbean colleagues have asked me on several occasions to explain my vote. Both Sylvia Leite and you would understand there was a principle at stake. In any event, I take full responsibility for that mistake. It will never happen again. What is important to note now is that the Caribbean caucus has noted your further attempt to question our legitimacy in LACRALO and here forward, shall retain this in our memory. Furthemore, since you raised the AUI-Peru proxy as an issue, you should understand that the plain language restricted the exercise to the election for LACRALO representative to ALAC and that only. In fact, the email from Johnny Laureano came ONLY after I was approached about AUI-Peru voting and I repeated the procedure to his (and your) emissary. Her again, the evidence of lack of attention to details. I have included the email from AUI-Peru in its original Spanish hereunder: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ "Johnny Laureano <jlaureano(a)aui.pe>reply-tojlaureano(a)aui.pe tocarlton.samuels(a)uwimona.edu.jm ccbronstein.sergio(a)gmail.com dateTue, Mar 3, 2009 at 5:24 AMsubjectOtorgamiento de Poder a representante de Internauta Venezuela para elecciones de representantes de la región en ICANN hide details Mar 3 Reply Estimado Carlton Samuels, Secretario del LACRALO-ICANN Luego de mis cordiales saludos, para expresarle a través del presente el otorgamiento de poder en favor de Sergio Bronstein de Internauta Venezuela, para que en representación de la Asociación de Usuarios de Internet del Perú - AUI PERU, pueda ejercer el voto de la AUI PERU para las elecciones de representantes al At-Large Advisory Committee de ICANN. Reiterando mis saludos y consideraciones, quedo de usted. Atentamente, Ing. Johnny Laureano Presidente Asociación de Usuarios de Internet del Perú ALS-ICANN jlaureano(a)aui.pe Telf. Cel. 51-1-995274283" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Your assertions as to what transpired for the LACRALO Teleconference is not just wrong but is evidence of a major weakness in assessment. You did not participate in preparing the meeting agenda although this was requested with ample time for your input. You did not object to the draft agenda that I prepared and circulated with the help of At-Large staff. All these require substantive work. And in this regard, you were missing, yet again. Once the work for organising the meeting is complete, you seem to be asserting an organic right to chair. Since you were not elected as Chair of LACRALO, that assertion is again purely an emblem of this threadbare ambition to be "el Presidente", regardless of facts and legitimacy. Finally, I believe your assertions on staff contact with certain parties on electoral matters borders on public mischief. But I shall leave it to the At-Large Staff to respond. Kindest regards, Carlton Samuels The University of the West Indies ======================================================================================================================== <Google Translation> After receiving your message with the chronology of events in the last General Assembly of the LAC RALO, I thought proper to send the following comments, which are referred to the ALAC request along with your report. > Stressed that in recent weeks I have chosen to remain silent, privileging the institutional health of the body as LACRALO collective over the individualities. > However, in view of the inaccuracies identified in the report that have prepared, I feel obliged to make a series of clarifications: > The report omitted details of the utmost importance and relevance that make the facts occurred far from the chronology contained in it. > In 1st place was avoided include (for no apparent reason), also presented the power AUI of Peru, who sent his mandate in a neat, sending a representative to (Mr. Sergio Bronstein Internauta of Venezuela), with copy to Mr. Carlton Samuels, the it was so sure that it does not fall into the hands of a person who be judge and party in the assembly, leaving doubts about its legitimacy. > Similarly, the other three powers came to the same person who was president of the assembly, were not shown to anyone, and simply informed by email the existence of such powers (why no copy was sent to another participant for faith that the same?). It seems that by displaying links to the mails sent by Carlton Samuels, wanted to endorse the message itself, not the mandate delivered by these or organizations that were conducted in accordance with the rules of the LACRALO. > It also failed to mention in the report actually was proclaimed a winner of the elections (which is exactly who supports, Sergio Salinas Porto), and I was put in duties immediately after the election. Since that time, played formally as president of the LACRALO, both in the ICANN meeting in Mexico, as later through contacts with regional organizations. > I also wish to stress that - at least when a questionable attitude in its transparency-see attached e-mails that [i] -, I convened a teleconference in which I was the only one who did not know that the legitimacy of my presidency was questioned. The teleconference was in English, without simultaneous translation, and my ability to understand the problem and present the corresponding defenses was severely limited. In fact, I asked repeatedly to explain that I was clearly speaking of the Mr Nick Ashton and Andrew Hart Piazza, which could not understand. Then Matthias Langenegg informed me that should make my position (or at least it was his understanding) because the staff had identified that the president was Andrew Square (there was never anyone that I had read that a recount of votes and we had to send monitors for this or that the ICANN staff was dismissed and who was put in office to another person other than who was proclaimed president in a General Assembly, in accordance with the rules of the LACRALO). > I should also note that, after a few hours had been prepared in another call which involved some ALSs - but without a quorum - in which I was not allowed to exercise the presidency of LACRALO in violent, discriminatory and with abuse, headed by Mr. Carlton Samuels, who, despite having no capacity to chair the meeting - because it was me that role to me, at least until duly discussed the topic with a new General Assembly. > These facts show that after the first call to which I refer, I shifted from the position for which I was duly elected by the Assembly, without the decision to consult with that body, and only after the decision by the ICANN staff. > These facts are of a very serious institution, both because of the remoteness of rules we have agreed, for it represents a clear and direct interference staff on issues that should have been discussed by the members of the ALSs RALO. > The complaints of Mr. Carlos Andrés Aguirre and Mr. Piazza were addressed in the Staff Instead of the assembly - would have received as -. Rather than give the matter the channel correct, we chose to solve the problem in a manner contrary to the rules of the LAC RALO > Note that I omitted - with effort - make any reference in a personal capacity about what happened. I would say, however, would have liked to be treated in a more fairly and respectfully during this traumatic process. > > I hope this is helpful to recall some issues in his chronology, cover and omissions - surely unintentional - of the report. We ask that accompany this note and its attachments with it, since the circumstances described here must be taken into consideration by the ALAC and the members of the LACRALO.

Fwd: [GTLD-WG] Approval of the document before the deadline
by Carlton Samuels April 7, 2009

April 7, 2009

See the information below for you full advice. Carlton Samuels ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Evan Leibovitch <evan(a)telly.org> Date: Mon, Apr 6, 2009 at 12:43 PM Subject: [GTLD-WG] Approval of the document before the deadline To: gtld-wg(a)atlarge-lists.icann.org Hello all, I'm coming to one of those moments of pure exasperation. As you know, at the Summit WG3 worked hard and long hours to craft a consensus that included not only critique but concrete recommendations for progress. The result of this work is at https://st.icann.org/alac-docs/index.cgi?statement_on_new_gtlds_application… We knew at the time that ICANN had imposed a deadline of April 13 for comments to revision 2 of the gTLD guidebook. I have been desperately asking ALAC for some process in evaluating the work to date, suggesting changes, and submitting the result in time as an endorsed document. To this end, I attended the last ALAC conference call and practically begged for some indication that this was being taken seriously. So far I have heard nothing from anyone except for 1) Un-helpful (IMO) comments from staff that suggested our credibility was at risk because of unnamed people whose views we hadn't considered. Weeks have passed since this staff threat was issued, yet none of the unnamed has stepped forward. 2) A timetable offered by the ALAC executive, proposing a consultative process that ends one week after the deadline has passed: https://st.icann.org/alac-docs/index.cgi?at_large_policy_development_schedu… I have personally heard from a number of individuals, and I have indicated their concerns in comments at the bottom of the WG3 wiki page indicated above. I am hoping to word-craft some text that will address these concerns. I also recall Beau Brendler stating that he had some comments but I haven't heard any details yet. We definitely want to keep working on this, maintain an open process, and consider all points of view. However, it appears that we're not going to be getting ALAC endorsement of our existing work in time for the deadline next week. In the absense of that, can I ask the other members of this WG to advance the issue within your RALOs, and possibly obtain their endorsement? I have already done this at NARALO. At this point I am asking for a tentative endorsement while I word on wording to address the concerns raised in my comments at the bottom of the wiki page. - Evan _______________________________________________ GTLD-WG mailing list GTLD-WG(a)atlarge-lists.icann.org http://atlarge-lists.icann.org/mailman/listinfo/gtld-wg_atlarge-lists.icann… Working Group direct URL: https://st.icann.org/gnso-liaison/index.cgi?new_gtld_policy
