[NCUC-DISCUSS] Registrants Rights and Responsibilities: let's propose a real alternative

[Rudi Vansnick]

Wendy,

I fully agree with your vision and proposal. 
Actually I consider WHOIS and privacy rules conflicting in some situations. When contact details of registrant are needed in order to protect the registrant and his rights they are most often hidden through the excuse of privacy regulation. A more transparent and open policy from registrar side is needed in order to allow pertinent needed contact. Most often we discover problems when a registrant wants to transfer his domain name to another registrar. So far, the regulation fails to give enough rights to the registrant.
