<p>Dear Farzi, </p>
<p><i>For #2, we do have as strong position on whether this work
should be prioritized -- <b>it should not. </b></i>The very
people who would be involved in this process are very tired. We
have been attending two meetings a week and we are very, very
tired. Applicant support, Community Priority Evaluation,
Objections and Appeals all involved untold energy from the
Multistakeholder Process. <i>Please do not prioritize RPMs --
Please Defer -- because there we will lose due to exhaustion if
we start now or even soon. Plus, as you point out there are so
many more Timely, Important Issues.</i></p>
<p><i><b>For #2, we need a new, independent, objective and neutral
data study of the UDRP - done by data scientists. Right now,
there is none. </b>To do a "data-driven review, we truly,
truly need an independent study, just as we had for starting the
RPM Review - Phase 1 with a great independent study on the
Trademark Clearinghouse. </i>As Co-Chair, I can tell you that
it changed the entire temperature in the Working Group from
partisan (I love the TMCH, I hate the TMCH) to constructive --
"given this independent, objective data, what are the problems of
the TMCH and how can we fix it."</p>
<p><b>Please, please, please find a way to get ICANN Org to
commission an independent study here, just like for RPM Review -
Phase 1 -- with questions from all SOs and ACs. After 90,000
UDRP decisions, the vast majority revoking domain names, it is
the least they can do and it will be critical to the outcome.</b></p>
<p><b>We will lose if we start with the WIPO-ICA report as WIPO is a
vested party and does not want us to review its work as
Provider. It wants to be legislator and judge.</b></p>
<p>Best and tx,</p>
<p>Kathy</p></div><div>

This issue should be prioritized in accordance with the
findings of the <em style="font-family:arial,sans-serif">Human Rights Impact Assessment (HRIA)</em>
conducted after the Transfer Policy Review PDP. The HRIA
identified that access to effective remedy is a central
human rights consideration, and the lack of a clear
dispute process for registrants creates an accountability
gap. Therefore, this work should move forward as a matter
of priority to ensure registrants have timely and
rights-respecting redress options in cases of domain name
theft or unauthorized transfers.</p>
<p style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><strong style="font-family:arial,sans-serif">2. Rights Protection Mechanisms (RPMs) Phase 2</strong><br>
We do not have a strong position on whether this work
should be prioritized. However, given the significant time
elapsed since the original PDP and the evolving
enforcement landscape, the Council should consider
multiple recent studies on UDRP rather than relying on a
single source. ICANN org should also conduct its own study
to assess the current effectiveness, fairness, and
accessibility of existing RPMs before launching any new
PDP.</p>
<p style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><strong style="font-family:arial,sans-serif">3. DNS Abuse</strong><br>
While recognizing the importance of DNS abuse mitigation,
we caution against adopting the “doomsday narrative” that
frames DNS abuse as an existential threat to the
multistakeholder model. The issue deserves attention but
not disproportionate urgency. If the PDP proceeds,
mitigation mechanisms must be evaluated not only for their
perceived technical effectiveness but also for their <em style="font-family:arial,sans-serif">consistency
with human rights principles</em>—including
proportionality, due process, and avoidance of
over-removal or overblocking.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I missed this action item
(“Staff to recirculate the Prioritization
document to Council list with a deadline of
feedback from SG/Cs of
<s>9</s> 21 October.“) from the Council’s
September meeting, so apologies for the later
delivery. Here is a link to the document:

https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/policy/2025/draft/gnso-council-prioritization-working-document-05sep25-en.pdf</a>
and because of the late delivery, I’d like to
suggest that the due date for feedback be
extended to 21 October. As a reminder, the
homework for Councilors is: “Councilors to
share the prioritization document with SG/Cs
to establish group priorities and share
feedback with Council not later than
<s>9</s> 21 October.”</p>
