Respecting private and personal data [#TGA-188-82885]:

["EPEMag.Net" <info@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):
Such changes that infringe the privacy of private 
individuals would immediately be considered 
completely illegal under European privacy and 
human rights laws, privacy laws that are more 
advanced, accountable to the people, more mature, 
insightful and respectful of citizens' rights 
than anything to be found in the USA. Which is 
why the European Commission is already 
prosecuting Google ('The right to be forgotten') for breaches of Human Rights.
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 exactly that 
-- private -- and regarded as a valuable right of 
21st century life to be cherished, requiring due 
controls and not delegated to a commercial 
kangaroo court to deal with. In my view the idea 
that private information could be made public 
without a due, legal and fair process is a gross 
infringement of the individual's rights to privacy.
Sincerely,

Alan R Winstanley
