Volker,

That is what agency is.

In the end, it should be someone who has the legal power within his organization to bind the organization to agree to the legal consequences a false request might entail and who would be able to follow up on inquiries directly.

We do not want to see a second understudy of the help desk staffer to send in requests. OTOH, I could live with a statement that the request has been authorized by such a person and the requestor would have to clearly delineate his position and authority within the organization. So in your case, this could be a brief statement from yourself.

Best,

Volker

Hi Kathy,

I am not comfortable with this language.  I can¹t even imagine asking a
VP, General Partner or Principal to make this request.   I am not an
attorney so it would leave me out of the process completely and I
understand the current process.  This is to limiting and as most companies
do we rely on third parties to assist in the enforcement which doesn¹t
always include attorneys.  But they rely on clear instructions from the
trademark owner to make a claim.  Looking forward to the robust discussion
tomorrow.

Signatory¹s name and legal relationship to the trademark
owner. Signatories shall be limited to those with ³first-hand² knowledge
of the
alleged infringement: ³Owner² (if trademark owned by individual),
³President,²
³Vice President,² ³General Partner² or ³Principal² (if trademark owned by
legal
entity)  or ³Attorney² with country and
state/provice/region of attorney¹s bar membership (if legal representative
appointed by trademark owner)

Hi Kiran,
Thank you for your comments. The agency issue worries some of us
greatly.  By what authority is the "agency" established; what actual
knowledge of the a) trademark or copyright owner's rights are there, b)
by what expertise can he/she make an assessment of infringement and c)
by what right, ability or authority can the signatory bind the trademark
or copyright owner to the allegations being made.

I should note that the proposed changes follow the DMCA: for a Reveal
Subpoena, the request must be done by an attorney for the Requester or
by the Requester himself/herself/itself (in the US we call it "pro se").

Best,
Kathy

Hi Kathy,

Thanks for forwarding this to the group, and special thanks for
forwarding with enough time to review before the call!

We can certainly discuss in more depth on the call tomorrow, but I am
not a fan of the changes in Section II.  I'm concerned about the level
of minutiae in the language, and I'm wondering how and why that level of
micromanagement will be helpful/probative information to the Service
Provider.  In very large companies, the trademark
owner/president/VP/partner, etc. isn't actually involved directly in the
enforcement activity.  It should be enough to demonstrate agency, as the
previous language did.

Perhaps I will have more later, but I wanted to float that to the group
before the call.

Thanks,

Kiran

Subject: [Gnso-ppsai-pdp-wg] Revised Reveal Doc

Hi All,
Steve and I talked on Friday, and he asked me to circulate a Revised
Reveal document -- which is attached.  This document has three types of
changes based on our discussion last Tuesday and subsequent research:

1. To the title (reset pending further discussion) 2. To Section II,
the Request Templates to clarify the requester and his/her direct
knowledge of the alleged infringement and legal authority to represent
the Requester, and 3. Annex (reset to original pending discussion with
drafters over the narrow goals and intents of this section)

All other edits remain - to continue our excellent discussion of high
standards for disclosure, human rights issues, etc. There is also much
to discuss regarding follow-up processes (after the Request) including
a) when are appeals allowed and for whom, and b) how does a Provider
challenge an alleged "wrongful disclosure" of its Customer's information?

Best and have a good rest of weekend,
Kathy
