And I feel very strongly that if we reach out to others, we should not be asking for much more than a signature on a letter. It needs to be a part of a campaign that we are leading. We cannot expect them to take the lead here. We are in the ICANN working groups, being ignored and observing ICANN's non-compliance, and our civil society members have their own priorities which I am sure they have already budgeted for for FY18.

perfect, but for the last paragraph:<br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">1) Threatening to go with a public official
NCSG campaign with State agencies of Europe to hit
ICANN, to force the MS model, is a very bad idea. As
NCSG, we should only go to governments through the GAC
and keep using our GNSO procedures to complain if we are
being left out. Going berserk on ICANN with borrowed
state power breaks the whole model, something that is
way beyond what we need to do in this case. It’s a
dangerous precedent. Why Europe? What about other
jurisdictions? other states? We can still coordinate
with the GAC, and as non-commercial activists we can do
public campaigns and state claims in defense of our
rights, but it should not be an NCSG action. We have
procedures to escalate the problem inside the model,
let’s use them fearless. Let’s call the ombudsman, keep
writing to the board, fill the open mic, massively go
into working group coordinating our members, etc (we
have councilors!). Asking data protection agencies to
put pressure for us, in NCSG name, outside the process
we set for ourselves is not ok, is a pandora box of
precedent.<br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">2) Even if we all agree that NCSG should ask
a governmental agency to put it’s nose in the GNSO
process, which I am NOT saying we do, the paragraph hits
a big brick wall of rhetoric problems. If you read the
letter, the letter is perfect, is reasonable, is harsh,
it makes you blush to think the issue is at such a poor
situation. Is backed by other stakeholder, opposite to
you. Once you read the threat you loose all the
communication bridges you build before in the letter.
Anyone with some knowledge of the GNSO will stop
thinking on the ICANN problem of addressing GDPR, they
will read that NCSG is threatening, to go to EU to force
ICANN, and the multistakeholder model. <br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">3) The letter is perfect, we do need a punch
in the last paragraph that states both our level of
concern, alert and the demand to be heard. But we should

choose the best tool.<br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Cheers,<br class=""></div><div class="">Martín<br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">On Oct 13, 2017, at 6:55 PM, Ayden
