Proposed ToR for Task Force 2

[Norbert Klein]

Thanks, Milton.

You say: "Note however that national laws often permit access to the
complete information to groups such as law enforcement and emergency
services personnel." - I agree that it is "Out-of-scope" to try to study
these different national legislations at present.

But I remember that one presentation at the Montreal meetings by a
Spanish lawyer from the EU pointed out that some of the presently used
WHOIS practices (e.g. in relation to making phone numbers publicly
available) is in violation of national legislation in some EU member
countries which have strong privacy protection provisions. She was very
strong in her statement, and clear that ICANN/WHOIS has to respect
these. And a US panelist then said: "Well, if their legislation is not
compatible, it will have to change!" Remember?
