[Gnso-epdp-team] Fwd: Nonpublic registrant data for ...

Dear RegistrarSEC (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Facebook),

I write on behalf of Stichting Registrar of Last Resort Foundation (RoLR) to request the registrant of the following domain name:
rr-facebook.com

The mailserver at mail.rr-facebook.com is being used to send silly automated emails like the one below. I am seeking to identify the registrant so I can give them a jolly good talking-to over some delicious tapas in Barcelona. 1

The information above should be provided by exactly Thu Oct 18 16:17:05 UTC 2018 in order to faciliate a timely restaurant reservation. I’m pretty sure that this is a lawful request under the European Working Lunch Directive.

Failure to comply with this request will involve absolutely no further action, because (let’s be honest) Compliance have enough on their plate already.

Yours faithfully,
Benedict Addis.
