<div>All of the changes that I made to the document were in ‘suggestion mode’, but someone else with editing privileges has already accepted some of them. (I have received notifications from Google that this has happened.) In the history
tab, however, you can turn them back on to see what changes have been made to the document and which have been accepted by other editors. Please let me know off-list if you’d like me to show you how to see these edits.</div>

<div>I will forward your message to the Policy Committee to review.</div>

</div>My initial reaction is, I’m not sure why we would need to make the case for the benefits of open data, when ICANN has already committed to making it available?

<div>Hi Sam,
<br />
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>I have made some rather substantial (proposed) edits to this statement now. In response to your comment, I have cited recommendation 10.5 of the Accountability and Transparency Review 2, and called for ICANN to provide non-commercial stakeholders
with the resources required in order to interrogate and analyse this data.
<br />
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>The Policy Committee is looking over this comment now (hence my last minute edits), but if there are any additional comments/suggestions that anyone has, we would still be able to consider them if they are added to the document today:

<div>Colleagues,

<div>

</div>
<div>While I fully endorse as much open data access for ICANN as is possible, without compromising personal privacy, I am sobered by the general view that in Open Government Data most of the benefits go to the deep pocketed stakeholders (corporate entities)
that have the financial resources to mine the data.
<br />
</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>Giving civil society access, without it having research resources, leaves it dependent on those few academics who will mine the data in the public interest, or when it just occasionally catches data outliers that raise concerns.

</div>
<div>Thank you and the team for taking the time for drafting the comment. I find that the points raised in the comment are indeed relevant! From a broader perspective, it is good that ICANN has plans to publish more data - I can see a lot of potential
for qualitative and quantitative research here in various fields of social sciences!
