ICANN - Respect Our Privacy

["Alex Drescher <alex@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>" <alex@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

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. 

Additionally, the ramifications of increased SPAM resulting from having 
additional, valid information openly available will exacerbate a problem that 
has been spiraling out of control.

Private information should be kept private. Thank you.
