ICANN - Respect Our Privacy

[Roman Goldstein <roman@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

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. Nobody’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. In fact, you should consider rule 
changes that keep WHOIS information private without users having to pay domain 
providers a fee to mask WHOIS data.

Sincerely,

Roman Goldstein
