[ispcp] RV: Agenda for 17 June WG call

[Christian Dawson]

Wolf-Ulrich and other ISPCP colleagues,

I'm also on this committee, and can definitely report that there remain some contentious issues surrounding this subject. In particular, if you review the document, issues surrounding the 'Threshold question' are very much unresolved. A minority of Working Group members want to make it so that commercial businesses cannot use privacy & proxy services.

If a threshold was set that required commercial entities to not use privacy services, I'm not certain how registrars would track which domains are commercial and which ones aren't. I, for one, feel that it's a bad idea to force registrars to categorize registrants based on the expectations of the content that the registrants report will be associated with the domains.

Having registrants categorize their planned usage seems to be a prerequisite for any sort of threshold you would set to qualify for privacy and proxy services. I don't think we would allow ISPs to be forced to ask their customers to categorize their usage type - so I personally think it would be unfair for us to ask registrars to do so. That's only one argument of many I could make against the idea of a threshold for privacy & proxy.  

I request that we at least consider responding to Questions C-1 and C-2 in this document to state that we don't support a threshold for privacy & proxy.

-Christian
