[comments-whois] Privacy concerns


I support the recommendation earlier expressed by Michael Palage to dissolve 
the WHOIS Task Force.  The current Task Force has failed to properly and 
fully address community concerns regarding privacy and as such cannot be 
entrusted to continue this necessary work.  There are a large number of 
privacy organizations worldwide that should have been contacted by this Task 
Force so that the ICANN Board could benefit from their expert counsel -- the 
failure of this Task Force to proactively engage in such outreach to this 
community is sufficient proof that the DNSO policy-recommending process has 
been captured by special interests with an agenda to promote data accuracy at 
the expense of consumer privacy.  A newly constituted panel (forced to abide 
by the GNSO policy development process) would at least ensure a more balanced 
approach to the issue.
