My feeling is that the survey should test how users react to dealing first with a ?thin? Whois because one issue we are to evaluate is the impact of having centralized ?thin? Whois services and decentralized ?thick? Whois services. Internic seems to be a ?thin? Whois in respect to some domain names and a ?thick? Whois in respect to others. It?s thin for Google.com, somewhat thin for the redcross.org, but thick for Wikipedia.org and UN.org. Of course people do not distrust Google (at least in terms of not being locatable) so I am not sure that Google.com and Internic Whois is the right combination. If we are going to give them a Whois web address, then I would prefer the users experience it ?thin? and have to figure out where to go from there. On another note, I was giving a talk on legal entity names to a room of 150 company lawyers on Friday and asked for a show of hands who knew what Whois was? Less than 10% responded affirmatively. I expect that Whois awareness may be somewhat higher on the part of paralegals in the US since it is the paralegals who generally have the task of looking behind businesses. Thanks Lynn, for all the good work.

In that regard I agree with your interNiC suggestion. Kim Please excuse my typos! This is sent from my iPhone. On 2011-09-24, at 22:43, wrote: Thanks Kim, We missed you in L.A. but understand. Your suggestion of the United Nations or Red Cross are great! Thanks for your time and thought in reviewing. I am taking this feedback and Sharon's comments back to User Insight for further consultation. If anyone else has further comments or suggestions, please let me know tomorrow. The predicament we have about which Whois page or site to use is that in the qualitative interviews, it was clear that there is a very low awareness that there is any kind of look-up or directory service for domain name owners. And the name "Whois" is certainly not well known. We can expect that almost all the online survey recipients will not be familiar with the term "Whois". Just my impression was that the in person interviews showed that when people were asked to research a website, they used several different methods and did not always find a Whois page. In this next step of research, the challenge is that this will be an online survey and people have to have pretty specific direction and choices. So we do want them to "find" a Whois page.

I think the questionnaire is very good. I was quite impressed by the simplicity and insight it conveyed. With respect to the WHOIS service they should be using, I suggest that should be open, i.e, the user should try to find one for themselves. Having said that, I am not sure how much or what kind of beneficial data that would add, but I think it may be a point worth raising. With respect to the Internet site, I would suggest we go with the United Nations website. I believe that all countries should be aware of the UN. Alternatively, how about the Red Cross? Finally, with respect to the questions themselves. I think that there should be something more in there with respect to concerns and or questions those participants may have about the WHOIS service. Indeed, there should be section for someone to does have domain name to look up his/her own information and seeing what is out there about him/her and then to have some information on what his/her thoughts are about that. I believe the structure of the questions if well thought out and flows quite nicely. All in all, I believe this is well done. Thanks again for the hard work. I am very sorry that I did not make it to the LA meeting, but things are crazy on my end here on the personal front and I am really barely keeping my head above water. All the best, Kim >

I want to support Kim's idea above of spending a little more time in the "my data" side of the questions. I think it is a great idea to have people look up their own domain name information in Whois and see what comes out. Is it the data they expect? Are they surprised or not? Even, is the data accurate for what they remember entering? Tying it to an actual Whois search I think would be very useful and information. Second to Seth also on thick and thin Whois databases.

In light of that, I think a personal website of an individual would be good. Indeed, we could just register a fake one, eg, Kelly Doe.com or something like that and and set it up as a personal family site. The reason for that is to convey that the information on the Whois does not make a distinction between corporate va natural persona etc. Other than that I think this is great. I am not sure about coca cola though although, granted coca cola has been for years the most recognized brand in the world. I still think the red cross is the best option and I was not aware that it was based on Christianity.

For example: 4-) "I do not use the Internet at all (TERMINATE)". Doesn't make sense, since if she/he doesn't use at all won't be starting filling an ICANN's survey :)) 5-) Who isn't "somewhat" (intermediate) experienced should be considered "extremely experienced"? 6-) "Surfing the web" is too general, it embraces all other options. How about an option related to study and research (academic, scholar) and perhaps something more political like "online activisms"? 9-) Collecting "any personal information" and having "financial transaction features through your website" have the same weight for survey purposes? About Coca-Cola, I got the idea but could means trouble anyhow, but maybe less than Apple, Microsoft and other power brands.

I agree, in ?articular with regard to the specific issues of non-latin environments like chinese or hindi. Arabic would be intersting as well, I presume.

I still think the red cross is the best option and I was not aware that it was based on Christianity. Alternatively, we could use separate city domain names for each country, eg, Washington for the us, Ottawa for Canada, beijing for china, etc. Well, my "issue" with the Red Cross is that the "cross" incarnation is linked to christianity, but presumably pretty well-known globally. I guess the islamic eqivalent, the Red Halfmoon is comparably well-known in its respective environment(s). As a faith-neutral version, there is also the Red Diamond incarnation, but I think this one is almost unknown around the world.... > Just my two cents. > > Kim Thanks, Lynn and Jonathan, for a very professional approach and for keeping us involved!

After doing so, I am wondering what the position of the team is wer the recommendations of the SSAC, specifically to think about adopting their proposals for terminology. I think adopting the basic suggestions to clearly specify registration data, protocol stuff and directory service/display for the end-user does make a lot of sense. I am less convinced that the more detailed and specific terminology suggestions and acronyms would really benefit the readers of our final report. Does anyone have a particular pov or guidance?

Quick question about questions 7 and 8 (pasted below). I found them confusing. In question #7, what is a website domain? Domain names are used for email, listservs, websites, FTP sites and other purposes (and some are just parked pending future use). As the question seems to be part of our "collection of personal data" series, can we ask generally whether they have personally registered a domain name, rather than linking it to a registration with a purpose? I think that will be more accessible... Re: question #9, the list seems a little narrow. Business use makes sense, personal use makes sense, but what about organizational use? Many individuals register for domain names in their own name for small political, hobby, parenting and religious organizations --- and place their own data in the Whois. A thought on "non-profit." We looked at this term when designing the GNSO Council Whois studies and found it to be US-centric -- based in US tax law. The global term we found more understandable was "noncommercial" -- e.g., many non-US based NGOs are not "non-profit" per se (as US legal category), but are certainly noncommercial. But the more general question above about organizational use may be broader and more approachable -- as many organizations, especially those run by individuals, are not formally incorporated -- and definitely fall outside of both "business" and "personal" use. Finally, is there a question of domain name registrant respondents asking them to search their own data in the Whois? If I missed it, apologies! There is support for this type of question -- and it goes beyond the broad "do you know your information is provided" -- to the very specific "does your sense of what is available about you correspond to what you actually found?" I thought it very interesting that the one person who searched for his own domain name in the initial interviews was upset to find the information displayed was not what he thought it should be. Sorry for such a long note -- I wanted to explain everything in the interest of time. In the end, I think it results in a few small changes to two questions, and a short additional one. Best and great thanks, Kathy ------------------------ Questions 7 and 8 below ------------------------- 7. Do you own and maintain a website domain which you personally registered? ? Yes (Continue) ?

Seth From: rt4-whois-bounces at icann.org [mailto:rt4-whois-bounces at icann.org] On Behalf Of lynn at goodsecurityconsulting.com Sent: Sunday, October 02, 2011 9:51 AM To: rt4-whois at icann.org Subject: [Rt4-whois] Quick note regarding status of consumer trust survey Dear All, Sending this brief note to advise current status of the Consumer Trust survey. I had a conference call with the User Insight team last Tuesday and we reviewed all the suggestions and feedback. As a result we made several improvements to the questionnaire. Overall, I deferred to the expertise of User Insight in helping us to achieve our objectives. Some of the suggestions we made are better suited to in person interviews rather than online surveys. Another consideration was the amount of time required of the survey participants. One point of their advice was to proceed with http://www.thecoca-colacompany.com as the domain to be used for the lookup exercise. User Insight planned to launch a pilot test to make sure there were no unexpected problems as a final validation of the questionnaire. I am expecting an updated status from them again tomorrow and will keep you all advised. Kind regards, Lynn -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
