Subject: [gnso-rds-pdp-wg] Using the GDPR as a basis for RDS Policy is backwards

 

I am only partially up to speed on the state of discussion within this WG, but I have been following the RDS situation for several years.  In my view, the current focus on GDPR, while understandable because of the looming deadline, is logically backwards.  The challenge, which we tried to address forcefully in 2012, is to rethink the RDS from the ground up.  In my view, this is:

 

o necessary

 

o feasible

 

o will lead to a much cleaner model

 

o will make it relatively straightforward to satisfy the GDPR and all similar regulations around the world.

 

There are also some issues such as the relationship of name server operators that also need to be addressed.

 

There is obviously much more that needs to be said.  I will contribute as much and as quickly as I can.

 

Steve
