[Gnso-ppsai-pdp-wg] PPSAI Work Plan

We've been discussing this concept in the EWG
Stephanie and Carlton can probably speak to this in greater detail, but the general idea is that such a service does have a valid purpose BUT that it should be carefully controlled to ensure that is not abused / misused.
The main problem is one of technical detail
At the moment a LOT of P/P services are linked closely to registrars, but they're not all owned by registrars or are setup "at arm's length"
A P/P service cannot delete a domain name - it doesn't have a technical interface into the registry .. only a registrar or registry can
And I suspect that infosec / LEA etc., wouldn't really like the idea of playing whack a mole with bad actors etc., if *any* domain could be deleted based on a complaint ..
It's an interesting yet quite complex issue to address.
Regards
Michele

For some registrants, such as legitimate whistleblowers whose anonymity for fear of retaliation is more important than the persistence of their domain identifier, this choice may be important. I hope we're at least leaving the opportunity for a compliant service to offer an "unidentified de-registration" option, even though we don't need to mandate it for all.

If the P&P service receives a request to reveal the identity and contact data of the registrant, I doubt it can refuse to relay them on account of the de-registration of the domain name (which should be done through the registrar). If the request comes from an individual or organization holding a legitimate interest, there may be situations in which they would still be entitled to get those data (I´m thinking of a prospective file suit or extrajudicial request for redress). But, let us discuss thoroughly at the appropriate time in the Work Plan.
I believe it should be legitimate to offer a service that has no possibility of identifying the registrant. Instead, it has other accountability, namely that the domain name stops resolving upon receipt of a legitimate complaint. That's the tradeoff I propose, that there be some situations in which it is by design impossible to get the identification of the registrant, but it's also impossible to keep the name in the face of a complaint.
