[Wp4] Board comments on Annex 6

[Paul Rosenzweig]

It’s OK Niels, they also think that increased transparency is against the global public interest.  I infer that they think that the GPI is equivalent to whatever gives them the least amount of constraint and the greatest amount of obscured power.

 

To say I am disappointed in the Board is to understate the matter.

Dear all, 

By now you have probably all seen the comment of the board on the
proposed raft report, and especially annex 6. If not please find them
attached.

I have to say I was both dismayed and struck by surprise when I read
the comments, but I am very curious to learn what you think.

My main feeling was that we have already addressed all points that are
brought up, but again I am very curious to hear your opinion.

Finally. The biggest surprise came from the suggestion of the use of
the public interest instrument, which seems to be quite far fetched to
use in case of human rights. !
 I can
imagine the headline: ICANN board
think human rights are against the public interest.

Looking forward to hear what you all think.

All the best,

Niels
