Preserve Domain Privacy

[Russell Dwyer <rdwyer@xxxxxxxxxx>]

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.
Private information should be kept private. Thank you.


PS.

Furthermore, this would not help expose illegal activity, this system is 
just as likely to be abused as the law. The only thing this would 
accomplish is a lack of privacy for legitimate sites.
