    An excerpt:
    ...
    Who wants to make that kind of personal information public for the
    benefit of spammers, direct marketers and snoops? You shouldn't have to
    publish your home address...I don't see why you should be punished for
    attempting to protect your and your family's privacy.
    There are plenty of legitimate reasons why domain name holders might
    leave their address blank.

    I'm a perfect example of that. Because of these restrictive rules that 
    violate one's privacy, I could be harassed, bashed or killed...and it 
    will be *directly the fault of ICANN. Why?
    
    I am an unabashed left-wing gay activist, with my own website, domain 
    name "gay-bible.org". I suffer *many Interent and Usenet stalkers 
    online...most of whom post horrifically violent threats to my existence.
    
    My life is *vastly and *needlessly endangered. Thanks for nothing, ICANN!
