[NCAP-Discuss] ICANN’s thoughts on controlled interruption

[Justine Chew]

Hi Heather,

Thanks for this.

I'd like to ask please, in your review of reports, advisories etc relevant
to Controlled Interruptions and Enhanced Controlled Interruptions, did you
come across any explanations (preferably not exclusively in technical
language) of the privacy and legal risks associated with the honeypot
approach? Might this have been highlighted in SAC 062 (although I didn't
quite spot any in a quick scan of this), or perhaps in SAC 066 and/or the
JAS report?

Thanks in advance for the assist,

Justine
