ICANN - Greg Monaco Says Respect Our Privacy

[Greg Monaco <greg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

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. 

The Internet domain registry needs checks and balances, a lack of
well-defined judicial oversight makes it too easy for personal information
to be abused.

Sincerely,

 

Greg Monaco
