Maintain the WHOIS system

["Chervin, Carole" <Carole.Chervin@xxxxxxxx>]

We at Planned Parenthood Federation of America have been targets of bad
faith attempts of cyber-squatting and other forms of abuse of the
Internet on a regular basis.  We rely upon the WHOIS function and
transparency to not only obtain vital information about the
perpetrators, and not only to protect our own rights in our marks, but
most importantly to protect the public from being misled and
misinformed.  We urge that the GNSO Council should adopt Motion 2 and
reject Motions 1 and 3.  Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely,

Carole Chervin
