CDT has written to the House Subcommittee on Courts, the Internet, and Intellectual Property urging it to consider the privacy concerns raised by the "Whois" database of personal contact information for domain name registrants. At the Subcommittee's hearing Thursday, witnesses called for new measures to force accuracy in the database. CDT has argued for some time that privacy protections can be added to Whois without compromising its valuable uses. September 4, 2003 [Center for Democracy and Technology]
