[Gnso-ppsai-pdp-wg] Questions to frame further D-2 discussion

[Mary Wong]

Dear all,

As noted during the call on Tuesday, we have undertaken to generate several
questions stemming from the ongoing deliberations that we hope can stimulate
further discussion on this list, with a view toward developing a preliminary
conclusion for D-2.

BACKGROUND:
- As you¹ll recall, the question for D-2 is: "Should ICANN-accredited
privacy/proxy service providers be required to maintain dedicated points of
contact for reporting abuse? If so, should the terms be consistent with the
requirements applicable to registrars under Section 3.18 of the RAA?²

- Section 3.18 of the 2013 RAA specifies two forms of contact that a
Registrar has to provide: the first is an abuse point of contact to whom
illegal activity is reported ­ in such cases the Registrar has to take
³reasonable and prompt² steps to respond. The second is a ³dedicated² abuse
point of contact applicable only to consumer protection agencies, law
enforcement and other such authorities ­ for these it has to be on a 24/7
basis and the Registrar has to review a report within 24 hours.

QUESTIONS FOR DISCUSSION:
1. Should accredited P/P providers provide a ³dedicated² point of contact or
is it enough that they maintain and make available a point of contact with a
requirement to respond (response to be determined)?

2. If ³dedicated², is what¹s currently in Section 3.18 sufficient? If not,
what should that be?

3. On the need to respond to a report, Is it enough for the
guideline/requirement to be the ³reasonable and prompt² standard in Section
3.18? If not, what should it be? Should there be a minimum time frame (if
any) for a response (understanding that the response may not be an
obligation to act on the report in all cases)?

4. What happens if it turns out action needs to be taken, but it may be
action more appropriate for the Registrar rather than the P/P provider to
take?


We hope you will find these questions helpful in framing and informing the
ongoing discussion.

Thanks and cheers
Mary
