ICANN testing tech to let law enforcement access non-public WHOIS info
Posted by PrivacyWire
ICANN is testing a single-sign-on system that could give law enforcement access to non-public WHOIS information in cases involving imminent threats to life, critical infrastructure, or children. This matters because it raises questions about how private registration data is protected, who can access it, and how emergency access is limited and reviewed. Have you had experience with WHOIS data requests or concerns about how such access should work?
