Keep WHOIS data private

[Vander Rice <vanxrice@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear ICANN:

Please keep WHOIS information private. I fear that exposing my personal
information endangers my safety and the safety of my business partners on
the internet.

I manage many domains on behalf of my customers, having them publically
registered under my name is not good for my business or my partner's
business.

Has ICANN considered that by exposing WHOIS registrants, it is enabling
"reverse WHOIS" database services? (e.g. searching names return domain
names and full WHOIS records?)

The ramifications of exposing WHOIS registration data are severe for
people's privacy and ability to do business safely on the internet.

Please keep private information away from public eyes.

Vander Rice
