[arin-ppml] Policy Proposal 95: Customer Confidentiality

[Kevin Kargel]

I agree with and support the AC's decision to abandon Policy proposal 95.

Persons (real or artificial) wanting to do business on a public network must be public and reachable.

> 
> I do not feel the AC should abandon Policy Proposal 95: Customer
> Confidentiality. I formally petition to move the following text forward
> for
> discussion on the list and at the next Public Policy Meeting. I would
> appreciate it if anyone this policy applies to would support moving this
> proposal forward by posting statements in support of the petition to this
> list.
> 
> 1. Policy Proposal Name: Customer Confidentiality
> 
> 2. Proposal Originator: Aaron Wendel
> 
> 3. Proposal Version: 2.0
> 
> 4. Date: 10 June 2009
> 
> 5. Proposal type: new
> 
> 6. Policy term: permanent
> 
> 7. Policy statement:
> 
> ISPs may choose to enter the customer's name along with the ISP's
> address and phone number in reassignments and reallocations in lieu of
> the customer's address and phone number.  The customer's actual
> information must be provided to ARIN on request and will be held in the
> strictest confidence.
> 
> 8. Rationale:
> 
> Version 2.0 clarifies the need for the customer name to remain in the
> SWIP and RWHOIS information.
> 
> Customer contact lists are one of the most proprietary and confidential
> pieces of information in any business.  The requirements for ISPs to
> publish those lists via SWIP or RWHOIS runs contrary to good business
> practices and invites competitors and others to solicit both individuals
> and companies receiving reassignments and sub allocations from upstream
> providers.
> 
> 9. Timetable for implementation: immediate
