 subject to Spanish law. They may serve legitimate purposes, like preventing spam or phishing attacks, or even prosecution in countries with limited freedom of speech, but in my experience, proxy and privacy services are overwhelmingly used by infringers of

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;color:#1F497D">We oversee websites addressing the Spanish market. The Ministry of Education, Culture and Sports supervise websites violating IPRs of right holders in Spain
 as well. They all have to comply with Spanish law. But, some of them choose to move to other locations to escape from public authorities control (their servers are located outside, their hosting providers are beyond our frontiers&#8230;), they hide behind &#8220;straw
 men&#8221; or hire a privacy or proxy service in another country to replace their Whois information. But, they still target the residents in Spain by providing information in Spanish, pricing in euros, displaying adverts of Spanish companies, etc.

 an IP address in Spain and directs you to <a href="http://es.godaddy.com">http://es.godaddy.com</a>. There, information is given in Spanish with a local telephone number for assistance. Those also fall within the scope of Spanish Law 34/2002, of 11 July, on

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;color:#1F497D">We have addressed proxy and privacy services on several occasions to request them to reveal to us the identity of the domain name holder, but they have refused
 to do so, arguing that they can only disclose that information to &#8220;law enforcement agencies&#8221; (aren´t we one of those?) or to &#8220;a state or federal court located in the United States&#8221;. If we were to seek a court order to be conveyed to foreign courts, recognized
 and executed by them, which we are not obliged to do according to our national law, the website at issue could have disappeared by then and our action would be useless. I enclose two sample answers.&nbsp; &nbsp;*I hope the companies named in this e-mail and in the examples

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;color:#1F497D">The Internet grants providers, however small they are, the ability to sell or offer information globally. But, I think that when you benefit from access to
 a market you must be obliged to abide by its rules as well (in the EU we apply the &#8220;country of origin&#8221; principle to the Internet except for consumer protection and some other exceptions since there´s a high level of harmonization among us). This rule of thumb
 in the physical world is not respected on the Internet to the detriment of recipients of services in local markets. A company doing business internationally should be able to cooperate with local authorities. Otherwise, it is helping infringers of local laws
 to pursue their illegal activities. </span><span lang="ES" style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;color:#1F497D">I understand verifying the authenticity of public authorities requests when a company provides its services worldwide, the competence of that authority to issue
 that request and ascertaining the information is not going to be used against human rights treaties cannot be automated like all the processes of registries, registrars and other Internet service providers. But, they should do something to cooperate with public
