ICANN - Vihar Says Respect Our Privacy

["Viharm" <viharm@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

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 proper legal routes, 
regardless of whether the request comes from a private individual or law 
enforcement agency.

        - Additionally, website owners can become easy targets to anti-social 
behaviour by anyone who has access to 'whois' tools

        Private information should be kept private. Thank you.
        Regards,
ViHARm
