Karl Auerbach Wins Access To ICANN Records
from the that-took-a-bit-longer-than-expected dept
We've spoken about the Karl Auerbach/ICANN argument many times before, but finally a judge has ruled that, as a board member, Auebach has the right to view ICANN's records. However, anything ICANN marks "confidential" can't be revealed without a 10 day warning - during which ICANN can sue to prevent him from releasing the info. What this means, of course, is that ICANN will likely mark just about everything as confidential.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
