Dear ICANN – I am a small business person and this is regarding the proposed 
rul changes to the WhoIS privacy services.In the past, when I set up my first 
website I didn't realize the importance of guarding my security. Telemarketers 
and spammers scrapped the information from Whois and I received so many calls 
from telemarkets that I eventually changed my phone number, and I can't count 
the massive increase in spam.Since that time, I have used privacy guard for 
every website I own, not for nefarious reasons, but to keep the past from 
reoccurring.Regarding the proposed rules governing companies that provide WHOIS 
privacy services (as set forth in the Privacy and Policy Services Accreditation 
Issues Policy document):I urge you to respect internet users' rights to privacy 
and due process.- Everyone deserves the right to privacy.- No one’s personal 
information should be revealed without a court order, regardless of whether the 
request comes from a private individual or law enforcement agency.Private 
information should be kept private. Thank you.
