Seems I made my considerations in the wrong email, but they are the same, besides one more point on privacy laws: if the Whois system should be kept public and accessible, the problems should arise specially - surprise! in fact, not - on proxy servers and services that keep personal data on private, or under certain conditions (usually paying a tax).

Hi All, On a key definition applicable law, Alice and I adopted the edits proposed:

==>  Now: The Team understands the “applicable laws” reference as encompassing all laws, but mainly focused on privacy laws and regulations, and notes ICANN’s existing consensus policy relating to conflicts with privacy laws. The Team considered, but determined not to include within the definition, international agreements and regional laws recognizing that such laws are enforceable only to the extent incorporated into the domestic laws of contracting states.

OK?  Raise a flag if not. Tx! Kathy & Alice

ORIGINAL ===>  The Team understands the “applicable laws” reference as limited to privacy laws and regulation (SK) comment: I agree with Emily should change to “encompass all laws but many mainly focus on privacy laws and regulations” and notes ICANN’s existing consensus policy relating to conflicts with privacy laws. The Team considered but determined not to include within the definition international agreements and regional laws, recognizing that such laws are enforceable only to the extent incorporated into the domestic laws of contracting states.
