Apologies for the few days delay on this, but I wanted to think through
the points which were raised on the call the other day in relation to
what my initial response was.

 

After thinking through it more, I would like to reiterate the concerns
expressed on the call earlier this week. While I think the idea of this
survey is a very good idea, I do not support the notion of sending this
to a specific segment of the registrant community as the results we get
back will be obviously skewed toward that narrow perspective.

 

I will support whatever the group decides, but will continue to push for
wider distribution of this survey so as to collect more meaningful,
community-wide feedback.

 

Regards,

Matt

Good points, Mikey.

 

And to expand on my thoughts on the call, perhaps it would be useful to
differentiate between "direct" and "indirect" harms associated with
hijacking when asking for experiences.

 

Direct Harm = Had a name hijacked or unknowingly purchased a hijacked
name.

 

Indirect Harm = The costs associated with performing due diligence,
etc., to ensure that one's inventory is not tainted by hijacked names.
Also negative PR / public perception for an individual company or the
entire aftermarket industry due to the co-mingling of legitimate and
illicit inventory.

 

 

J.

        here is my contribution to the survey (following up on my
comments on the call today).

         

        it would be nice to insert a line of questioning into the survey
that goes something like this:

         

        -- do you support the goal of rapidly returning a hijacked
domain to its owner?

         

        -- if you support the goal of rapid-return of a hijacked domain,
but disagree with the approach taken by the WG, what approach would you
suggest instead?

         

        regarding Matt's point (about who receives the survey)...  maybe
one way out would be to clearly state the **use** of the information
gathered.  i share Matt's concern that we are seeking an
intentionally-biased sample right now.  so if the results of this survey
are going to be the basis of determining policy then we need a broader
sample.  but if the use of the survey is to inform policy-making, and it
is made clear that this is not a representative group and their views
may not prevail when balanced against the broader community of
stakeholders, then i'd be OK going with a narrow focus.

        Thank you for your input! I will be on vacation September 7th
through 15th  and will miss our workgroup calls during that time.

        I will coordinate with Bob on who I can start contacting in the
coming week anyway so that we don't lose much additional time.

        Thanks to Bob and Simonetta for pulling this together.  I think
that it looks very good.  I would recommend a few modifications for
clarity and to solicit detailed feedback vs. yes/no responses.  I have
highlighted the recommended modifications in red in the text below.
Thanks again for drafting this.

        Hello everyone, 
        On the Aug 24 call James Bladel asked Simonetta and I to gather
some aftermarket perspective on ETRP.   We've put together a list of
questions and a number of aftermarket cohorts.  Please feel free to
reply with any comments or suggestions by end of day Monday Sept 6.
We'll begin reaching out next week.
        
        Best!
        Mtn.
