    <p>There are two additional considerations that are essential here
      as well, namely:</p>
    <p>1) the differentiation between legacy registrations and new
      registrations. Any regime that can rely on such
      self-identification can only work going forward, and not be
      retroactively be applied to prior self-identification or use of
      the Org field. This would quickly lead to a two-class handling of
      registration data that can have significant impact on the data
      subjects and the domain management processes. Further, experience
      has shown that any differentiation in domain handling procedures
      will be attacked down the road by interested parties. <br>
    </p>
    <p>2) the issue of personal information being included in the data
      of the legal entity. Even if a valid and reliable
      self-identification can be obtained, there is practically no
      guarantee that such information does not also includes personal
      information of staff members of said entities.</p>
    <p>I therefore propose to stick to the original proposal that no
      differentiation be required.</p>
    <p>Best,</p>
    <p>Volker<br>
