I totally agree with you and Cedric, and suggest you file a complaint to 
the new ICANN privacy officer.  Happy to help draft it!

PS I had already complained to ICANN years ago that they should not be 
using the outlet they use for posting their professional photos of ICANN 
meetings, as it demanded you join and provide a cellphone number.  
Unacceptable.  (Unfortunately, I cannot remember what app they were 
using, nor can I find it on the site with a couple of quick searches.)
