Hi team, [I have limited the audience to only the DNS abuse task force and PC] I would like to know your thoughts on the Council small team recommendations (attached), particularly on the following areas: - *The idea of GNSO focusing only on malicious registrations as an attempt to stay within ICANN's remit?* *My comment: While I think it is a good idea to focus only on malicious registrations, we'll have to make sure that the definition of malicious registrations included in the issue report is only limited to bots, spam, phishing, pharming and malware.* - *A tightly scoped PDP to explore whether it is possible to identify indicators of malicious registrations that would trigger actions from Contracted Parties either at the time of registration or shortly after.* *My comment: I fear this might make proactive monitoring more acceptable. If this were to proceed, we'd have to make sure that strong appeal mechanisms are included in the process.* Would love to hear your thoughts.
