Subject: DNS Abuse for our meeting in roughly an hour
To: <NCSG-DISCUSS at listserv.syr.edu>


Dear all,

We need to discuss DNS abuse and the trusted notifier idea.

the CPH (again) came up with this idea. They had that idea when they were
running "healthy domain initiative". We were not happy with it then, and I
am not sure their framework is much better now.

Here is the framework they provided in 2021:

The problem with trusted notifier is that usually the ones who are trusted
are also the ones that have been in this business and are more powerful and
have the resources. They have set agendas (for example, advancing their IP
rights). So they have the upper hand. I find it a terrible idea. There are
assertions that these frameworks won't endorse any one group but I think
they pave the way and legitimize such processes.

Before anything we need to see how much of this framework relate to ICANN
mandate.

Here are a few things I have thought about:
Option 1 : go all against this framework, tell them it didn't work last
time, it won't work this time.

Option 2: Ask them to use NCSG expertise in Human Rights framework, do an
HRIA or something more lightweight. It is true that they have taken on I&J
framework into account but to be frank I don't see a detailed focus or
systematic way that can analyze human rights principles or just digital
rights principles. Here is the document:

Option 3: Ask them to focus on streamlining processes and not
privileging groups to report abuse.
