Hi Jim,
Very generous. Staff - please make that change to the statement I submitted, if it is deemed that is the correct way to represent these signatories.
However, if any individual attorney or any individual at all wants to sign to any statement in their appropriate capacity as a member of the ICANN community, I strenuously object to ANY attempt to stop them from doing so.
Thanks,
Kiran

>>>>>>>>>>> services)
>>>>>>>>>>> should be prohibited from using P/P services.

>>>>>>>>>>> privacy/proxy registration for protection, including minority
>>>>>>>>>>> political groups, minority religious organizations, ethnic
>>>>>>>>>>> groups, organizations committed to change of racial policies,
>>>>>>>>>>> gender orientation groups, and publications engaged in freedom
>>>>>>>>>>> of expression. These groups and their representatives note
>>>>>>>>>>> that, in the laws of their countries, the mere collection of a
>>>>>>>>>>> donation or membership fee does not change their status from
>>>>>>>>>>> ³non-commercial² to commercial. Others noted that ³non-profit²
>>>>>>>>>>> status is limited to only a few countries.
>>>>>>>>>>> Further, many of organizations, small businesses, home-based
>>>>>>>>>>> businesses (including those run by mothers and seniors) conduct
>>>>>>>>>>> their financial transactions through 3rd party e-commerce
>>>>>>>>>>> companies, such as PayPal, and thus are not processing the
>>>>>>>>>>> financial transactions directly.
>>>>>>>>>>> Accordingly,
>>>>>>>>>>> many members in the WG submit there is no reason to breach the
>>>>>>>>>>> proxy/privacy of organizations and businesses purely and solely
>>>>>>>>>>> for this reason.
>>>>>>>>>>> Many members many in the WG submit that content regulation is
>>>>>>>>>>> far beyond the scope of ICANN and properly the scope of
>>>>>>>>>>> national laws some of which has taken initiatives in this
>>>>>>>>>>> area which are clearly defined and properly limited in scope
>>>>>>>>>>> and application (e.g., Germany).
>>>>>>>>>>> For those that argued that it is necessary and practical to
>>>>>>>>>>> limit access to P/P services to exclude commercial entities,
>>>>>>>>>>> the following text was proposed to clarify and define their
>>>>>>>>>>> position: ³domains used for online financial transactions for
>>>>>>>>>>> commercial purpose should be ineligible for privacy and proxy
>>>>>>>>>>> registrations.² This suggestion has been debated strongly by
>>>>>>>>>>> the members of the WG and has not reached consensus as others
>>>>>>>>>>> submitted that:
>>>>>>>>>>> "Attempting to distinguish the end purposes of a domain
>>>>>>>>>>> registration is not practicable for the purposes of determining
>>>>>>>>>>> eligibility for privacy/proxy services, and will unfairly
>>>>>>>>>>> discriminate against vulnerable groups, entrepreneurs, small
>>>>>>>>>>> businesses and organizations who wish to exercise their rights
>>>>>>>>>>> of freedom of expression rights on the Internet.
>>>>>>>>>>> Input requested on the full issues, including questions below:
>>>>>>>>>>> € Should registrants of domain names associated with
>>>>>>>>>>> commercial
>>>>>>>>>>> activities and which are used for online financial transactions
>>>>>>>>>>> be prohibited from using, or continuing to use, privacy and
>>>>>>>>>>> proxy services?
>>>>>>>>>>> € Is this type of content regulation outside of ICANN's
>>>>>>>>>>> scope and
>>>>>>>>>>> mandate and the proper province of national law?
