It will take some diligent work, but I am hoping that we can minimize the impact on all who combat abuse of all kinds. That is where I would like to see us spending our time instead of denying that change is needed.

Indeed Chuck. For those who believed that that we could get away with not making very significant changes, this is a/another wake-up call.

On a relative level, our job is easy since we are in theory starting with a clean slate. How ICANN addresses TODAY's issue of GDPR and the present system is, in my opinion, far more challenging. And we are almost surely going to impact the ability of those combatting malicious activities.

We need to quickly proceed with our part where we know we can implement tiered/controlled access and set policy so implementation may begin.

I would really like to see us start seriously working on ways forward instead of arguing whether the GDPR impacts what we do today.  I personally think that there is enough evidence that changes are needed, so let?EUR(tm)s accept that and work on the changes.

Thanks Alan,
I found the memorandum to be extremely well written and couched in neutral phrasing. It indicates to me that there are ways forward which, while they may not give everyone exactly what they want, provide a basis for a realistic basis for WHOIS directory services to continue.

Perhaps it has already been posted, but if not, ICANN has received the first part of the independent legal analysis of the GDPR in relation to WHOIS that had been commissioned.
It can be found at https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/gdpr-memorandum-part1-16oct17-en.pdf .
