Re: [ga] Whois


Bashar and all,

  Any privacy services offered by any registrar for it's registrants
that does not offer, 1.) offer legal liability insurance covering any
privacy breach of any registrants information regarding their
registration and granting the registrant any access for review
by that registrant or his designated representative, and 2.) allows
any registrants name and address to be available to anyone doing
a Whois query on any domain name allowing access to that
information, cannot  be providing any real privacy protection
for that registrant.

  Hence again, as has been pointed out so many times over
the past 4 years and in so many ways, registrars AND ICANN
have a duty to the registrant, as a public servant and/or trust which
they have been neglecting and have been recalcitrant in word
and deed in ignoring those responsibilities which they are entrusted
with.
