ICANN - Alexandra Bykova Says Respect Our Privacy

[Lexie Bykova <albykova@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. 

I don't use and don't want to use my service to conceal illegal activity, and I 
am not a criminal. Using a WHOIS privacy service is no more suspicious than 
having an unlisted phone number. 
Then why am I treated with suspicion? 
These new proposed rules would wreak havoc on my right to privacy online. 

Private information should be kept private. 
Thank you.
