ICANN - Gavin Cotton Says Respect Our Privacy

[Gavin Cotton <gcotton@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

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.

I operate my businesses from home and releasing this information may let my
family be at risk should it be provided to people who are not using it for
the correct reasons.

Private information should be kept private. Thank you.
