This illustrates the basic difference of opinion:
Proposal: By not allowing the flow of WHOIS data for anything but
purposes backed by legal rights to that information or required for the
technical operation of the internet
1) We will strengthen the rights to private data against anyone desiring
to abuse that data by claiming to have some ephemeral purpose to access
that data
2) The internet economy will likely not be affected
3) By defining restrictive access requirements, we will still enable
legitimate cases where access to such data is needed
Best,
Volker
