 they disclose customer/beneficial user information to third-party complainants (percentage-wise), and who those complainants are (LEA, 3P IP complainants, etc.).&nbsp;

 providers would respond that it’s exceedingly difficult to track that information, and that therefore they don’t know? &nbsp;<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:&quot;Tahoma&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;">Hi Keith,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:&quot;Tahoma&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;">&nbsp;<o:p></o:p></span></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:&quot;Tahoma&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;">We've seen&nbsp;descriptions of their processes&nbsp;from GoDaddy, Tucows and Endurance.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:&quot;Tahoma&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;">What I think should be inferred though from our discussions and from those descriptions is that there are no established standards for disclosure&nbsp;because they are exceedingly difficult to
 craft.&nbsp; In many respects, standards would make the jobs of our compliance teams significantly easier. However, in our years of doing business we have never come to a place where we've&nbsp;found a set of rules that we can apply to the variety of requests that we&nbsp;get.&nbsp;&nbsp;
<o:p></o:p></span></p>

</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:&quot;Tahoma&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;">This working group is attempting to codify&nbsp;rules (in a relatively short time frame)&nbsp;that service providers haven't been able to achieve individually.&nbsp; This isn't to say we shouldn't try, but
 it's clearly not easy.&nbsp; There are few black and white cases, and unending reams of gray requests, which is why we've heard so much about providers protecting their ability to exercise discretion.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:&quot;Tahoma&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;">1. I think I answered this previously in my description of our service.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:&quot;Tahoma&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;">4. &amp; 5.&nbsp; Answers to these require the provider to be using some sort of ticketing/request system that allows tagging/categorization and reporting based on outcomes.&nbsp;&nbsp; Many may not be big enough
 to have this sort of system in place, or have systems that don't offer these features.&nbsp;&nbsp; This is probably exceedingly difficult information to capture.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
