ICANN Whois Privacy/Proxy Abuse Study Findings Webinar Invitation****

27 September 2013****

*In order to participate, please RSVP via email to the GNSO Secretariat (**
gnso.secretariat@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx**) to receive the call details.*****

You are invited to participate in a webinar about the recently released
Whois Privacy/Proxy Abuse Study, conducted for ICANN by the National
Physical Laboratory (NPL) in the United Kingdom. This study has now been
published for public comment, and community feedback is being invited in
order to assist ICANN with evaluating potential changes to Whois policy and
the use of privacy/proxy services.****

The study was commissioned by the GNSO to help the ICANN community
understand the role that privacy and proxy service abuse plays in obscuring
the identities of parties engaged in illegal or harmful activities,
including phishing, cybersquatting, hosting child abuse sexual images,
advanced fee fraud, and the online sale of counterfeit pharmaceuticals. NPL
was engaged to analyze domain names across the top five gTLDs - .biz, .com,
.info, .net and .org – to measure whether the percentage of privacy/proxy
use among domains engaged in illegal or harmful Internet activities is
significantly greater than among domain names used for lawful Internet
activities.****

NPL's chief investigator on the study, Dr. Richard Clayton of the
University of Cambridge, and ICANN staff will provide a briefing on *Tuesday
15 October at 12.00 UTC and 19.00 UTC*, summarizing NPL's findings and
conclusions based on the data they collected and analyzed. Amongst other
topics, Dr. Clayton will discuss:****

   - NPL's methodology for the study and the hypothesis tested;****
   - The different project activities and work packages undertaken for the
   study;****
   - NPL's statistical analysis of the data sampled for the study,
   including comparative differences observed by the research team; and****
   - NPL's conclusions based on the results of its analysis.****

The two sessions are duplicates, scheduled to accommodate different time
zones. Each session, scheduled to run for sixty (60) minutes, will be
conducted in English only. The meeting will be run in Adobe Connect with a
slide presentation along with a dial-in conference bridge for audio.****

Participants will have the opportunity to ask questions at the end of each
session. During the course of the webinar, questions may also be submitted
using the chat function of Adobe Connect. If you are not able to
participate in either of the live sessions, the recording of the session
will be made available shortly after the meeting. The policy staff is
always available to answer any questions that you email to
policy-staff@xxxxxxxxx.****

In order to participate, please RSVP via email to the GNSO Secretariat (
gnso.secretariat@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) to receive the call details. Please
indicate which call you would like to join on Tuesday 15 October - at 12.00
UTC or at 19.00 UTC (to convert those times into your local time, see:
http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedform.html). We will send you an
e-mail reminder before the event with log-in and dial-in details. Please DO
NOT RSVP to any other ICANN staff member's e-mail address.****
