he said it was a violation of federal privacy laws. i am not an attorney... but i am wondering if thats correct. asking for proof of age ... i.e. a photo and birthdate only, i "think" is not a violation of federal privacy laws because they are not specifically asking for any personally identifiable, non public info (full name, home address, date of birth, social security number, passport number etc). it would seem quite logical that if the site owner sent all that info to DirecNIC, that he would most likely be violating federal privacy laws. further, i doubt that US privacy laws have any relevance at all to foreign citizens.... meaning demanding to see the ID of a Czech model or disclosing it here is perfectly legal... but if the record owner was in CZ and disclosed that info to US citizen or some organization, he would be in violation of their own privacy laws. they asked for ID's of 14 models. if those 14 models are known to not be US citizens.. then again, i would imagine that its not likely that they broke US law in asking for it ... nor would a US law be broken in disclosing it. that being said... demanding this info "or else", thats a different issue all together. that has nothing to do with privacy laws. after thinking about everything and if its correct that they have zero liability for a sites content, then they shouldn't be asking for anything.. much less threatening their business. if they have no liability... then they have no direct interest in policing site content. if thats true, then i would not agree at all with what happened. |

An attorney gave an opinion. Whoopee. Opinions are like assholes, everyone has one. When a judge comes in and makes a ruling, then we'll have something to go on.
The attorney's *opinion* was that DirectNic had no right to investigate the claim. Sorry, but evidently research wasn't done. Slick *gave* DirectNic the right when he contracted their services and agreed to their Terms of Service. If it's in your registrar's TOS, it doesn't matter if you like it or not. You agreed to it. Period. Don't like it? Move to another registrar... but good luck finding one that doesn't have the same type of clause in their TOS. |
