ICANN - Respect Our Privacy

[Kylee Nicholls <kayloulee88@xxxxxxxxx>]

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.
This rule change will be downright dangerous for people who rely on 
privacy online. Women fleeing abusers, journalists in countries that 
don't have a free press, and people everywhere who need to hide their 
identity for safety reasons, will be put in danger, sometimes 
life-threatening. Do you really want their blood on your hands?
Private information should be kept private. Thank you.

Regards,

Kylee Nicholls.
