    Again, I really think we need to dial down the level of sarcasm
    here.  The proportionality proposal was made in good faith.<br>

    However, I&#39;m from a privacy advocacy organization and even I have
    agreed that there are operational problems with any proposal to
    limit unauthenticated access to thin WHOIS data.  I agree that while
    privacy is an absolutely key principle to be upheld, so is the
    generativity of the Internet, and that unauthenticated access to
    thin WHOIS data, much of which just replicates the information that
    end users make available through their own nameservers, is part of
    the permissionless innovation that underpins many real world
