It is not so straightforward and easy to find such information, and in the case of double location for tech and corporate offices, one could spend time looking for information in the wrong place. That would help – and tech teams would not have to deal with legal requests because they would be addressed where they belong: corporate offices (in the case of the lone entrepreneur of course it is different, but in this case there should not be two locations for tech and legal to start with for instance). <o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Best,<o:p></o:p> Sara<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <div> <div style="border:none;border-top:solid #B5C4DF 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0cm 0cm 0cm"> From: Mark Scholten [mailto:mark@mscholten.eu] Sent: 10 October 2018 14:51 To: Marcolla, Sara Veronica; ncc-services-wg@ripe.net Subject: RE: @EXT: RE: [ncc-services-wg] 2018-05 New Policy Proposal (Publication of Legal Address of Internet Number Resource Holder)<o:p></o:p> </div> </div> <o:p> </o:p> Hello Sara,<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Yes they probably have to be recorded as a business in their country.

And if the laws in their country doesn't require it I'm happy with that (it is probably not a problem for them).<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> I understand the target of the policy and as long as not at least addresses that are also private addresses are excluded from the policy I'm against. This is not based on the GDPR or a similar law.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> I would accept the proposal if it would point to the already publicly available information in the national company registry. And to make it easier to find the correct one I'm even happy to allow that the right country and chamber of commerce number can be listed. But there it ends for me.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Note I don't want to make your work impossible as what I know from the media Europol does great work. However duplicating data is not something I personally like (and privacy has to be protected as far as possible).<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> " What would you think if the proposal would be adjusted in that way (to publish the registration number and the country of registration for resource holder)?

Very often self-employed people and really tiny undertakings with specific activities operate from the private address of the owner which then doubles as the address of the undertaking. However, for what I can understand this Regulation does not cover the processing of personal data which concerns legal persons and in particular undertakings established as legal persons, including the name and the form of the legal person and the contact details of the legal person. But even those have to be somewhat recorded as businesses in their country, right?<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> I would like to clarify that the aim of the proposal was never aimed to publish information for which a warrant is needed. Only data that is publicly available in national company registries. <o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> This is why I am actually liking a lot your idea of publishing the number provided by a chamber of commerce or similar in the specific country. This would help to unambiguously identify the resource holder, without prejudice to the privacy of the individuals. The NCC has the registration number from the registration papers that resource holders must sent them. Many countries allow now to verify company details online, and for the others, it will be a small step of additional due diligence (like thoroughly checking the registration paper or asking for additional documentation). Implementing it could imply slightly more manual work as we only started recently to save the registration numbers of new members. Still, that would be something RIPE NCC would need to sort out if such proposal would reach consensus.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> @ All<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> What would you think if the proposal would be adjusted in that way (to publish the registration number and the country of registration for resource holder)? <o:p> </o:p> <o:p> </o:p> If there is a CSIRT rep on the list I’d as well like to hear their opinion on this.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Kind regards,<o:p></o:p> Sara <o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <div> <div style="border:none;border-top:solid #B5C4DF 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0cm 0cm 0cm"> From: Mark Scholten [mailto:mark@mscholten.eu] Sent: 10 October 2018 12:32 To: Marcolla, Sara Veronica; ncc-services-wg@ripe.net Subject: RE: @EXT: RE: [ncc-services-wg] 2018-05 New Policy Proposal (Publication of Legal Address of Internet Number Resource Holder)<o:p></o:p> </div> </div> <o:p> </o:p> Hello Sara,<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> If no address is used that is used as a home by someone and it is verified by RIPE NCC it can work.

And if they don't have that some other number that can be used to identify the organization. That way the legal system can work as normal (you can find someone based on this number) and no new publication of an address is required.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> At this moment I'm against this proposal and as long as at least this isn't resolved I will be against.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> Kind regards,<o:p></o:p> Mark<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <div style="border:none;border-left:solid blue 1.5pt;padding:0cm 0cm 0cm 4.0pt"> <div> <div style="border:none;border-top:solid #B5C4DF 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0cm 0cm 0cm"> From: Marcolla, Sara Veronica [mailto:Sara.Marcolla@europol.europa.eu] Sent: Thursday, September 27, 2018 23:58 To: Mark Scholten; ncc-services-wg@ripe.net Subject: @EXT: RE: [ncc-services-wg] 2018-05 New Policy Proposal (Publication of Legal Address of Internet Number Resource Holder)<o:p></o:p> </div> </div> <o:p> </o:p> <div> <div> Hi Mark, <o:p></o:p> </div> <div> <o:p> </o:p> </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. <o:p></o:p> </div> <div> <o:p> </o:p> </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? <o:p></o:p> </div> <div> <o:p> </o:p> </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. <o:p></o:p> </div> Kind regards, Sara Marcolla Typed with a very tiny keyboard this mistakes can occur<o:p></o:p> <div style="border:none;border-top:solid #B5C4DF 1.0pt;padding:5.0pt 0cm 0cm 0cm"> <div> From: Mark Scholten <<a href="mailto:mark@mscholten.eu">mark@mscholten.eu</a>><o:p></o:p> </div> <div> Date: Thursday, 27 Sep 2018, 10:12 PM<o:p></o:p> </div> <div> To: ncc-services-wg@ripe.net <<a href="mailto:ncc-services-wg@ripe.net">ncc-services-wg@ripe.net</a>><o:p></o:p> </div> <div> Subject: Re: [ncc-services-wg] 2018-05 New Policy Proposal (Publication of Legal Address of Internet Number Resource Holder)<o:p></o:p> </div> </div> <o:p> </o:p> </div> <div> Hello, This should have come from my personal account.
