ICANN - Brian Prieur Says Respect Our Privacy

[Brian Prieur <b.prieur@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.
- The internet is the new place for small business to thrive, reducing
their expectation of privacy and sense of security is counterintuitive to
encouraging new businesses from taking entrepreneurial risk.
- 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.
