ICANN - Simonas Says Respect Our Privacy

[Simonas Kazlauskas <s@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

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, with or without paying for 
additional services.
- No one’s personal information should be revealed without a court 
order from the resident’s home country, regardless of whether the 
request comes from a private individual or law enforcement agency.
I also urge you to remember that there’s many more individuals who 
have registered domains for their own personal, non-commercial, uses. 
You can’t expect them to willingly expose sensitive personal 
information such as their residence location.
Private information should be kept private. Thank you.
