I remember someone having this issue last year and as far i remember he was not able to get ripe to unblock him so i think you are out of luck. On Mon, Nov 17, 2014 at 10:51 PM, Ronald F. Guilmette <rfg@tristatelogic.com

This is a limit on "person:" objects, NCC's idea of data protection.
Apparently.
Don't think you'd like my solution for this though, I wouldn't allow anyone who isn't a) identifiable and b) contracted access to personally identifying data.
I would be perfectly OK with (a). In fact, accessing this service only via individual password-protected accounts seems to me to be the only rational way to _actually_ protect the data from mass harvesting.
Regarding (b) I would be OK with that too, as long as the contract in question required me to pay only zero dollars... er... I mean zero euros.
