<div>Hi Allison,<br></div><ul><li>I
like to think that I keep busy, but I’m happy to admit that the UN Special Rapporteur
on the Right to Privacy is a far, far busier man than I am. I am very grateful
that he, and the other Data Protection Commissioners, found the time to engage
with us in Copenhagen given their many other engagements.<br></li><li>The
idea that it is only Europe which has privacy laws has been widely debunked; three
times on this list just today. <br></li><li>The
"gatekeeper" can only release information that they hold. This is precisely
why the only data that should be collected is that which is relevant and
necessary for the purposes in which it is processed, and retained for only so
long as is absolutely necessary.<br></li></ul><div>Best wishes,<br></div><div><br></div><div class="protonmail_signature_block "><div class="protonmail_signature_block-user "><div>Ayden Férdeline<br></div><div><a href="http://www.linkedin.com/in/ferdeline" title="http://www.linkedin.com/in/ferdeline">linkedin.com/in/ferdeline</a><br></div></div><div class="protonmail_signature_block-proton protonmail_signature_block-empty"><br></div></div><div><br></div><blockquote class="protonmail_quote" type="cite"><div>-------- Original Message --------<br></div><div>Subject: Re: [gnso-rds-pdp-wg] international law enforcement association resolution regarding domain registration data<br></div><div>Local Time: 27 April 2017 6:47 PM<br></div><div>UTC Time: 27 April 2017 17:47<br></div><div>From: elsakoo@gmail.com<br></div><div>To: Stephanie Perrin <stephanie.perrin@mail.utoronto.ca><br></div><div>RDS PDP WG <gnso-rds-pdp-wg@icann.org><br></div><div><br></div><div dir="ltr"><div>I'm sure everyone's schedules are quite busy, and they will manage.<br></div><div><br></div><div>We need a proper legal authority here because it's potentially falsely being presumed that the use of WHOIS data is illegal and noncompliant in the first place.

also found
John
Bambenek's
point in a
later thread
to be
interesting-
concentrating
WHOIS
knowledge
solely to one
organization
allows the
country it
resides in to
use it to
support its
intelligence
apparatus, for
example
monitoring
when its
espionage
domains are
queried for,
and targeting
researchers
that query
them (since
anonymous
querying will
be revoked).
Nation states
already use
domains in
operations so
this monopoly
is a perfect
strategic data
reserve. The
fact that this
system is
pushed by
privacy
advocates is
indeed ironic.</span><u></u></span></span></span><br></p></div><div><p style="background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;" class="MsoNormal"><span class="highlight" style="background-color:white"><span class="colour" style="color:black"><span class="font" style="font-family:Helvetica, sans-serif"><u></u> <u></u></span></span></span><br></p></div><div><p style="background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;" class="MsoNormal"><span class="highlight" style="background-color:white"><span class="colour" style="color:black"><span class="font" style="font-family:Helvetica, sans-serif"><u></u> <u></u></span></span></span><br></p></div><div><p style="background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;" class="MsoNormal"><span class="highlight" style="background-color:white"><span class="colour" style="color:black"><span class="font" style="font-family:Helvetica, sans-serif"><u></u> <u></u></span></span></span><br></p></div><div><p style="background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial;" class="MsoNormal"><span class="highlight" style="background-color:white"><span class="colour" style="color:black"><span class="font" style="font-family:Helvetica, sans-serif"><span class="size" style="font-size:9.5pt">None

are _user_<br> supplied. So
they come from

The<br> ROID is
assigned by
the registry

once you have

you are
looking at the

only the same<br> object, and
all the same

addresses in
particular are
guaranteed
unique in the
world at<br> any given time
(though not
guaranteed as
unique
identifiers
over<br> time), so they
may be useful
for these
purposes.
Take it from
someone<br> named "Andrew

however, that

pretty useless

finding out
the answer to
what I (meant
to) pose(d)<br> requires no
plethora of
data: it
requires a
single query
and access to<br> the right
repository
(the
registry). In
some
theoretical
system, the<br> correct
underlying
database query
would be
something like
this:<br> <br> SELECT
domain_roid,
domain_name
FROM domains
WHERE
registrant_roid
= ?;<br> <br> and you put
the correct
ROID in where
the question
mark is, and
off<br> you go. That
will give you
the list of
all the domain
names, and<br> their relevant
ROIDs,
registered by
a given
registrant
contact. At<br> least one
registry with
which I am
familiar once
had a WHOIS
feature<br> that allowed
something
close to the
above, only it
would stop
after<br> some number of
domains so as
not to return
too much
data. I think
the<br> default was
therefore
LIMIT 50, but
I also think
the feature
was<br> eventually
eliminated
about the time
that the ICANN
community
rejected<br> IRIS as an
answer to "the
whois

will of course
not do is help
you in the
event Bob The<br> Scammer has
created dozens
of different

himself by

names through
many different
registrars. I
do not believe<br> that any
registry is
going to
support such a
use at least
without<br> access
controls,
because it can
be expensive
to answer such
things.<br> So, what you
understood me
to be asking,
I think, is
the question I<br> did _not_ ask:
given this
human being or
organization,
what other<br> domains are
registered?"
That does
require a lot
of different
data,<br> and it
requires
cross-organizational
searches, and
it requires
sussing<br> out when
someone has
lied also.
Such research
is, I agree,
completely<br> outside the
scope of what
any technical
system will
ever be able
to<br> offer
reliably.<br> <br> > An entire<br> > industry

anyone's<br> commercial

those things
are basically
in response to<br> deficiencies
in the

protocol. In
this case,
however,<br> that's not the
problem.
Linking data
