<html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=Windows-1252"> <meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft Exchange Server"> <style></style> </head> <body> <div> <div>Hi Mark, </div> <div><br> </div> <div>I read your concern about individual privacy and I am sure that in the implementation of the policy, the safeguards and guarantees that are aimed at protecting personal privacy and individual rights, especially following the provisions of the GDPR, will be guaranteed. On this point, I believe that even in this strong disagreement, we do agree. </div> <div><br> </div> <div>The aim of the policy, as you indeed understand, is to publish the location of where to address non-technical concerns. That we like it or not, there are other reasons that call for the need of quickly contacting a resource holder other than a merely technical issue. And as Internet is global but chamber of commerce databases are local, it is to be welcome an addition to a database that can serve this purpose. Do you agree? </div> <div><br> </div> <div>In this sense, it is indeed helping to speed up legal processes - and it speeds up the most basic first hurdle, that is �to whom can I address my concerns that are not of (purely) technical nature�? I am not only speaking here of Law Enforcers - but I am also speaking here of all those entities that have to put into practice provisions coming from the NIS Directive for example, or perhaps even the GDPR. All these require to immediately contact for legal reason an entity, and this policy proposal would be a step into this direction. All what can be done on the technical level (and you rightfully mention RPKI and other measures surely effective technically) needs to be complemented by what can be done to facilitate certain processes in place that require actions other than technical. There are as well as you say other actions to speed up other parts of the legal process and they are being explored, but this proposal complements them, does not substitute them. I know. It might sound a little philosophical but is in the end reflecting the reality of what internet is now: not only a community of technicians and enthusiasts, but a wider one. </div> <br> Kind regards, <br> Sara Marcolla<br> <br> Typed with a very tiny keyboard this mistakes can occur<br> <br> <div class="x_gw_quote" style="border-top:#b5c4df 1pt solid; padding-top:6px; font-size:14px"> <div><b>From: </b><span>Mark Scholten <<a href="mailto:mark@mscholten.eu">mark@mscholten.eu</a>></span></div> <div><b>Date: </b><span>Thursday, 27 Sep 2018, 10:12 PM</span></div> <div><b>To: </b><span>ncc-services-wg@ripe.net <<a href="mailto:ncc-services-wg@ripe.net">ncc-services-wg@ripe.net</a>></span></div> <div><b>Subject: </b><span>Re: [ncc-services-wg] 2018-05 New Policy Proposal (Publication of Legal Address of Internet Number Resource Holder)</span></div> </div> <br> </div> <font size="2"><span style="font-size:10pt;"> <div class="PlainText">Hello,<br> <br> This should have come from my personal account.<br> <br> This are my personal opinions.<br> <br> Regards, Mark<br> <br> > -----Original Message-----<br> > From: ncc-services-wg [<a href="mailto:ncc-services-wg-bounces@ripe.net">mailto:ncc-services-wg-bounces@ripe.net</a>] On Behalf<br> > Of Stream Service<br> > Sent: Thursday, September 27, 2018 23:08<br> > To: ncc-services-wg@ripe.net<br> > Subject: Re: [ncc-services-wg] 2018-05 New Policy Proposal (Publication of<br> > Legal Address of Internet Number Resource Holder)<br> > <br> > Hello,<br> > <br> > I'm against this policy.
