[RDS-WHOIS2-RT] ICANN sues and Tucows counters

[Carlton Samuels]

So ICANN is not happy with what one registrar is doing to mitigate its
risks per GDPR compliance. So it filed against this Tucows proprietary in a
German court.

Tucows counters and delivers a statement that goes to the heart of the
Temporary Specification; it does not give them the comfort they feel is
needed.

Cannot now from the publicly-available information say the parties followed
the ICANN Procedure for Handling WHOIS Conflicts with Privacy Laws.  But it
appears that procedure now has a wooden stake to its heart.

FWIW, I am already on record about the Conflicts procedure; wrong -headed
and insidious.
