[CPWG] [GTLD-WG] Next possible move related to GDPR

[Alan Greenberg]

Evan, that is fine for a report, but it is less clear what that means 
for participation in a process such as the edpd.

Let us hypothesize that there are 4 billion users and 2% of them are 
gTLD registrants (80,000,000). Does that mean that Hadia and I should 
push strongly for law enforcement and cybersecurity professionals to 
have good access most of the time, but for 2% of the time we strongly 
support those who want to minimize their access because they do not 
believe that there is sufficient justification to infringe on 
registrant privacy (ie the "privacy fetishists  ;-) )?

That will not give us much credibility!

Remember, it is not a case of nit providing privacy for those who are 
granted those rights under GDPR or similar legislation. That is a given!
