ICANN WHOIS MISUSE STUDY FINDINGS WEBINAR INVITATION

In order to participate, please RSVP via email to the GNSO Secretariat \
(gnso.secretariat@gnso.icann.org<mailto:gnso.secretariat@gnso.icann.org>) to receive \
the call details.
You are invited to participate in a webinar about the recently released Whois Misuse \
Study, conducted for ICANN by Carnegie Mellon University's Cylab. This study has now \
been published for public comment, and community feedback is being invited in order \
to assist ICANN with evaluating potential changes to Whois policy. The study was \
commissioned by the GNSO to obtain objective and quantifiable information about the \
extent, nature, and impact of WHOIS public data misuse – that is, harmful actions \
taken using contact information obtained from WHOIS – through (1) analyzing \
reported misuse incidents and (2) conducting experiments to measure misuse and the \
effectiveness of anti-harvesting measures. CMU was engaged to perform the study using \
two complementary approaches: (1) a descriptive study to document and analyze WHOIS \
misuse incidents that have already occurred and (2) an experimental study to \
stimulate and record misuse in order to measure more reliably the impact of making \
WHOIS data public and WHOIS query filters applied to deter data harvesting. CMU's \
chief researchers on the study, Dr. Nicolas Christin and Mr. Nektarios Leontiadis, \
and ICANN staff will provide a briefing on Tuesday 17 December at 12.00 UTC and 19.00 \
UTC, summarizing their findings and conclusions based on the studies they performed \
and data they analyzed. Amongst other topics, Dr. Christin and Mr. Nektarios will \
discuss:
· CMU's methodology for the study and the hypothesis tested;
· The different project activities that were undertaken for the study;
· CMU's analysis of the data reported and sampled for the study; and
· CMU's conclusions based on the results of its analysis.
The two sessions are duplicates, scheduled to accommodate different time zones. Each \
session, scheduled to run for sixty (60) minutes, will be conducted in English only. \
The meeting will be run in Adobe Connect with a slide presentation along with a \
dial-in conference bridge for audio.
Participants will have the opportunity to ask questions at the end of each session. \
During the course of the webinar, questions may also be submitted using the chat \
function of Adobe Connect. If you are not able to participate in either of the live \
sessions, the recording of the session will be made available shortly after the \
meeting. The policy staff is always available to answer any questions that you email \
to policy-staff@icann.org<mailto:policy-staff@icann.org>.
In order to participate, please RSVP via email to the GNSO Secretariat \
(gnso.secretariat@gnso.icann.org<mailto:gnso.secretariat@gnso.icann.org>) to receive \
the call details. Please indicate which call you would like to join on Tuesday 17 \
December - at 12.00 UTC or at 19.00 UTC (to convert those times into your local time, \
see: http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedform.html). We will send you an \
e-mail reminder before the event with log-in and dial-in details. Please DO NOT RSVP \
to any other ICANN staff member's e-mail address.
