ICANN - Respect Our Privacy

[Stephanie Sigaty <ssigaty@xxxxxx>]

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 am a small business owner and do not want my personal address and phone 
number revealed to the public.  I live alone and this terrifies me.  Also, the 
threat of identity theft is ever-present in today's world.  PLEASE allow the 
WHOIS protection to remain in place.

I urge you to respect internet users' rights to privacy and due process.  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. 

Thank you for your time.

Sincerely,
Stephanie  8-)
