<div>Niels and all, </div><div>I agree with Martin on this. I had some troubles understanding your question.

</p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="background-color:rgba(255,255,255,0)">I consider my positions on the issues at the core of what the NCSG advocates for – supporting a Domain Name System that is innovative, protects the global public sphere, and is reliable – to be normative and consistent with the positions that the NCSG and its constituencies have taken since inception. To the best of my knowledge I have not taken any positions which are fundamentally inconsistent with the NCSG's principles or mission.</span>

</p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="background-color:rgba(255,255,255,0)"></span><span style="background-color:rgba(255,255,255,0)">However, outside of our core activities, there is one area where it is possible my views diverge from some other members. I tend to see things in transactional terms, so my position on the value of some ICANN-funded programmes could be influenced by what return on investment I see being generated. I would find it difficult to continue supporting a programme where I thought metrics were either lacking or revealing no justifiable return. Now whether, as a GNSO Councillor, I would have any involvement in determining the future of such programmes, is quite another question.</span>
</p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="background-color:rgba(255,255,255,0)">I hope this answers your question, Niels.

is most divergent from the other candidates? In other words: what makes you different? Not in terms of style, but in terms of content. Thanks again very much in advance to the candidates. Best, Niels On 08/23/2017 11:59 PM, Mike wrote: > Hi,

law enforcement or security agencies, beyond an educational role in sharing info about what ICANN is about, or something like that. ICANN should do only what it is legally compelled to do, and even that should be carried out with maximum transparency,
