ICANN - Marco Niese Says Respect Our Privacy

[Marco Niese <marco@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear ICANN –

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.

Note: just because my domain WHOIS information isn't currently anonymized,
doesn't mean I don't want to have the option. I just get the odd letter in
the mail about my "domain registration renewal" that is in fact a
registration in some business directory, unrelated to my registrar.

Private information should be kept private. Thank you.
