<div>Hello to members of ISOC's Internet Policy discussion
group.<br>
</div>
<div> <br>
</div>
<div> I am Counsel to the Internet Commerce Association (ICA).
Last week I posted a blog concerning the HDI proposal at
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.internetcommerce.org/dna-unveils-hdi-with-copyright-udrp/">http://www.internetcommerce.org/dna-unveils-hdi-with-copyright-udrp/</a>
. ICA subsequently posted a statement of concern regarding the
Copyright ADRP which can be found at
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.internetcommerce.org/ica-deeply-concerned-with-proposal-to-enable-domain-transfers-based-upon-copyright-claims/">http://www.internetcommerce.org/ica-deeply-concerned-with-proposal-to-enable-domain-transfers-based-upon-copyright-claims/</a>
.<br>
</div>
<div> <br>
</div>
<div> This past week I have been attending the Intersessional
meeting of ICANN's Non-Contracted Party House (NCPH) in
Reykjavik, Iceland in my capacity as one of the GNSO
Councilors representing the Business Constituency (BC - and
noting that the BC has not taken any position on any component
of HDI and that this communication is being undertaken in my
ICA role and not on behalf of the BC). During the meeting I
engaged in conversations with many other members of the NCPH
who share substantial concerns regarding the Copyright ADRP
and its imminent implementation by PIR.<br>
</div>
<div> <br>
</div>
<div> Those concerned NCPH delegates have asked me to draft a
letter that can be signed by individuals and organizations
requesting that PIR and ISOC undertake an open and transparent
dialogue with the broad Internet community before making any
final decision on whether and in what form to implement the
Copyright ADRP. We share the common belief that PIR, as the
registry operator affiliated with ISOC, has a particular
responsibility to engage in such a dialogue before granting
ISOC's implicit blessing to an unprecedented dispute
resolution procedure concerning copyright disputes. That is
particularly true given that the DNA developed the HDI
components without undertaking the broad outreach and
discussion beyond its membership that it had initially
indicated would be forthcoming.<br>
</div>
<div> <br>
</div>
<div> As I am uncertain of the propriety of circulating such a
draft communication on this list, I am requesting that
individuals and organizations that may have an interest in
joining such a communication contact me direct at
<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:psc@vlaw-dc.com">psc@vlaw-dc.com</a> . When the letter is final I will share it on
this mailing list, and in the interim I will likely have more
to say on this subject in my ICA Counsel capacity.<br>
</div>
<div> <br>
</div>
<div> Thank you for your attention.<br>

<div> I don't accept that that is the only alternative: in my
view it is just<br>
</div>
<div> as unreasonable.<br>
</div>
<div> <br>
</div>
<div> However, even if that is the alternative, it is better for
many reasons:<br>
</div>
<div> the effects are limited to the country concerned; the
process is<br>
</div>
<div> governed by the laws of the people affected; blocking is
often<br>
</div>
<div> ineffective; the cost of silencing a domain owner
worldwide are much higher.<br>
