>> Dear All:
>> 
>> One of NCSG's follow-up items on WHOIS coming out of Beijing was a special request from Stephanie Perrin, who is the only privacy advocate on the ICANN Board's Expert Working Group on Directory Services (aka whois).
>> 
>> Stephanie needs for NCSG to assist her in coming up with a list of use case examples of why one needs an anonymous domain name registration. 
>> 
>> So if you know of any facts that describe a scenario that demonstrates the legitimate need to register a domain name anonymously, please let us know!   Actually, please let Amr Elsadr know (cc'd here) who's agreed to keep track of this information for NCSG and feed it to Stephanie for her work on the working group.
>> 
>> Stephanie came and spoke to NCSG during our open meeting in Beijing and asked for the help of our members in coming up with these examples.  This is a great chance for us to provide direct input into an important process to protect privacy and anonymity rights on the Internet, so I hope you will send any thoughts you may have to Amr (or post to this list for collection also).

>> Thanks for your help!
