[CPWG] PIC commitments on ORG

[Jonathan Zuck]

Thanks Nat. That link came from a report and presentation we received from Interisle Consulting, which the CPWG found compelling. There seems to be a high correlation between bulk registration and DNS Abuse. Graeme Bunton reminded us, at our DNS Abuse panel, there are legitimate purposes for bulk registrations. Accordingly, the Interisle report doesn’t suggest prohibiting bulk registrations but just keeping a closer eye on them with certified bulk registrants, some additional classifications, etc. We had heard that PIR had done away with bulk registrations but now as I look at GoDaddy’s site, they seem to be there so we may need to soften our recommendation to more closely hew to the Interisle recommendations.

Welcome your thoughts on this, if you think we’re approaching it incorrectly. We can discuss as part of this PIC discussion on Wednesday.

Jonathan,

You have a tendency to link DNS abuse and bulk registrations.  Could you explain how bulk registrations are a form of DNS abuse?

Regards,

Nat Cohen

Folks,
Take a look at the PIC commitments proposed by PIR/Ethos for ORG.  At present, they focus on pricing, free speech and privacy.

While a step in the right direction, including some binding powers in the above regards by the stewardship council, our concerns extend to the consumer trust implications of dramatically broadening the registrant profile of .ORG.  We want it to remain predominantly a space for non-profit organizations and individuals and limit the potential for DSN abuse through practices such as bulk registrations.

In any case, give it a read and we will discuss on Wednesday.
Jonathan
