I'm not sure how the ALAC would wish to deal with this. But quite frankly, it is time ICANN desist from aiding and abetting scofflaws under colour of contract. And that would be my recommendation for comment. Simply put, these procedures are intended to assist contracted parties to channel and navigate ignoring their own national privacy laws. You might wish to refer the recent EU High Court ruling on privacy in the Safe Harbour context here <http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-10-06/eu-u-s-data-sharing-pact-i...> for guidance. -Carlton ============================== Carlton A Samuels Mobile: 876-818-1799 *Strategy, Planning, Governance, Assessment & Turnaround* ============================= On Tue, Oct 6, 2015 at 8:21 AM, ICANN At-Large Staff < staff@atlarge.icann.org> wrote:
