Privacy
I may be repeating what millions of others have to/will say, but it is worth the repeats if ICANN will understand the public in this matter. The private individual needs the MOST privacy they can get.The copyright industry already have more than sufficient legal tools to aid them in thier endeavours. Disallowing Privacy because a private person chooses to advertize/support an entity, either freely or for some sort of compensation, is overstepping the mark. It seems the Copyright Industry are forever trying to get others to do thier work for them. Screaming about thier own rights - yet persistently trying to strip all others of hard won rights that are usually ensconced in law. We should ensure the Copyright Industry has no influence in the organization, running, maintenance, legal position or Privacy of the internet. ICANN - Please listen to the people on this one - personal privacy should not be abused for the sake of a slightly easier life for an overbearing commercial entity. No matter what they have to say - they only think of commercial aspects of situations and not a balanced public interest aspect. Public/Private interest should be the touchstone here - not greed and avarice. |
