[PC-NCSG] Fwd: Re: [IAG-WHOIS conflicts] Draft report

Wed Aug 5 03:12:20 EEST 2015

That's an interesting little document you have there Stephanie.

 First question: Has anyone considered the fact that in countries like Germany and the United States there are many privacy and data protection laws at the subnational level? California alone has in excess of 25 privacy laws I'm aware of. This document only references conflict with national laws. What about conflict with subnational laws? 

 ( If that's not a concern for those involved in the process might I suggest a friendly letter of inquiry to the California AG? I'd be very happy to assist both in the drafting and transmittal of such a letter.)

 Second question: The consensus alternate trigger. As hard as it might be to imagine, there are places and government departments that might not really want to spend the time writing letters to a private California public benefits corporation. In some countries the regulators and parliaments write the rules and legal advice is a function of an agreement between a private party and a lawyer. Does ICANN really expect special treatment from governments or is this just another case of ICANN telling their contractual partners to go out, if you can't get a clearance just break the law and then come to us?

 Who is coming up with this stuff?

I am sorry to pester you, folks, but I am once more agitated about the absolutely ridiculous (IMHO) report about to come out from the WHOIS conflicts with law volunteers group. I am going to have to write a dissent, as I am sure that my comments will be ignored as usual.  Ideas on how to respond from veterans would be most welcome.  It will go out for a 45 day comment period, and I am sorely tempted to try to muster another petition campaign.  All this at a time when we have a huge group mustering to club human rights to death in the bylaws of the new accountable ICANN (call me cynical, but look at the group who has joined the HR and accountability working group.....).  I am ccing Kathy and James because of course they are v active on the privacy proxy issues.....  Cheers Stephanie

Thanks for this Jamie.  I regret not taking a closer look earlier, but you know how busy we are these days.  Attached are a few redline comments.
I think the report, while recognizing that technically the policy is not in scope for the work of this team, should at least mention that many of us have repeatedly said this is a nonsense and the policy needs to be revisited.  To simply submit this as it stands invites all kinds of reaction which might not be conducive to reasonable outcomes.

   All,

 Attached please find a redlined draft report in Word and PDF. For tomorrow?s call, I would propose reviewing the changes from the last draft and next steps. While I regret not being able to circulate the revised draft sooner, the number of changes are fairly limited.

 Best,
 Jamie
