Dmitry This has been discussed before; there are no new privacy issues raised by this proposal. First, privacy issues pertain to “natural persons” not to the organizational entities (legal persons) that typically hold and trade address blocks. Second, and more fundamentally, recording transactions in the way suggested by 2012-05 does not alter anyone’s privacy status whether they are a natural person or legal person. The possession of an address block both before and after the transaction will be recorded in the Whois. We are simply making the information about the functioning of the transfer market easier to see, compile and analyze. Again, you talk about the “high price” of the proposed policy but provide no specifics. Please tell me who would be harmed by having a transaction directly publicized in the way proposed, how they would be harmed. Until you do so I cannot take your arguments seriously.

Sorry - you reminded me last discussions on Whois and last years talks about lea's expectations to minimize their spendings and to get centralized DBs with personal data on each Internet user or as it named in our country - personal authorization in Internet . Of course - you current talks seems are so far from this- but what's can be behind? I hope that you can understand that there are two side of one medal and the price of free market approach can be so high for us? Dima PS Sorry - it was not directly about disclosure info on transfers - it is a part of some of more general issues where this market is just a small part Sent from my iPhone On 03.11.2012, at 21:06, Milton L Mueller <mueller@syr.edu<mailto:mueller@syr.edu>> wrote: For example, on stock market no one publish who sold and who bought shares. I think for safety reason. [Milton L Mueller] One can pick a dozen other resources, ranging from acquisitions of companies to real estate transactions, where buyer and seller are documented. Second, even with stock exchanges, trades made by “insiders” are all documented, by name. Third, “safety reasons” dictate that resources held in rem are best recorded in a public exchange, so that it is more difficult to deceive anyone in the public as to who is the rightful owner of resources. What you need to do to make your argument convincing and meaningful, Alexey, is to explain what harm is done by publishing this information. Tell me what “safety” issues for example are raised by people knowing that a transaction took place? For analyse enought anonymous statistical information about transfers. -- Alexey Ivanov LeaderTelecom 29.10.2012 20:27 - Emilio Madaio написал(а): Dear Colleagues, The draft document for the version 2.0 of the proposal 2012-05 has been published.
