<p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black;">ICANN posted a <a href="http://whois.icann.org/sites/default/files/files/cmu-misuse-study-26nov13-en.pdf" target="_blank">Study</a> on Whois Misuse. </span></p>

<p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black;">Back in 2009 the BC prompted this study to learn whether "<i>Public access to WHOIS data leads to a measurable degree of misuse – that is, to actions that cause actual harm, are
illegal or illegitimate, or otherwise contrary to the stated legitimate purpose.</i>"</span></p>

<p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black;">We discussed this study on our 5-Dec member call. Three BC members volunteered to review and draft comments on the study (Jimson Olufuye, Susan Kawaguchi, John Berard).</span></p>

<div>
<p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black;">As discussed on our 9-Jan call, their proposed comment is brief and should be easy for members to do an expedited review before ICANN's due date of 18-Jan-2014.</span></p>
