ICANN - Mary Murphy Says Respect Our Privacy

[Mary Murphy <mpmurphy99@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.
- 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 private. Without these protections, the 
public - particularly individuals and small business owners - will be 
needlessly subject to scams, junk mail and con artists who prey upon those 
whose information is easily accessible in the public domain - most especially 
when it is available online as it is easy to scrape vast amounts of such 
information there.
Thank you for listening to my concerns - 
Sincerely,Mary Murphy
