<p style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;line-height:normal"><span style="font-size:12pt"></span><i><span style="color:black">As members of a network
which encompasses many non-commercial organizations and public interest
technologists, we are concerned by the announcement that Ethos Capital is
acquiring the assets of the Public Interest Registry (PIR) from the Internet
Society (ISOC), including the .ORG, .NGO, and .ONG Registry Agreements. </span></i><span style="font-size:12pt"></span></p>
<p style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;line-height:normal"><i><span style="color:black">Principally, we are
concerned that the sale of PIR to a private entity will significantly alter the
Domain Name System and weaken ISOC. PIR played an important role, as the only
remaining non-commercial top-level domain registry operator, in serving as a
counterbalance against commercial exploitation. PIR ran .ORG, .NGO, and .ONG
for the benefit of its users, whereas other top-level domains are run by
private companies with purely financial objectives. While the interests of
companies and users do at times overlap, they can also conflict, and when this
occurs there are significant human rights implications. PIR, as a subsidiary of
ISOC, could be relied upon to do what was best for domain name registrants, and
has a proud history of doing just that. However, PIR also gave ISOC legitimacy
and influence. It allowed ISOC to take an active role in shaping Internet
infrastructure </span></i><i><span style="color:red">[IAS:
suggest to add here… “keeping the Public Interest Intact”]</span></i><i><span style="color:black">. In relinquishing its control
over PIR, ISOC loses its ability to directly impact how millions of people
around the world positively experience the Internet every day, and we think
that is a great pity.</span></i><span style="font-size:12pt"></span></p>
<p style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;line-height:normal"><i><span style="color:black">This is a significant
change, for ISOC and for the Internet community, and we are not yet satisfied
that there are appropriate safeguards in place to protect the interests of
.ORG, .NGO, and .ONG registrants and the people who visit their websites every
day. <u>You have the ability to put requests to Ethos Capital and to call this
deal off if appropriate and binding safeguards cannot be put in place</u></span></i><i><span style="color:rgb(255,192,0)">.</span></i><i><span style="color:black"> </span></i><i><span style="color:red">[IAS: it very polite, humble request
or perhaps diplomatic sentence/phrase. Which will result a simple answer “thanks
for your deep concerns but we do not feel it appropriate at this stage the take
the deal off”, the same I have listen from ICANN Chair in 2009]</span></i><i><span style="color:black"> We encourage you to do just that.</span></i><i><span style="color:red"> [IAS: What to do, to stop the deal
or what is appropriate? Need to change this sentence and to be specific result
that we are recommending or demanding] </span></i><i><span style="color:black">As a sign of good faith, we ask that ISOC have Ethos Capital
commit to incorporating PIR as a benefit corporation. </span></i><i><span style="color:red">[IAS: again we are allowing them to
proceed with the deal and seeking the alteration of the terms, rules/bylaws and
commitment of a commercial entity to keep this public interest entity protected
as a benefit organization…? Secondly, believing and understanding that the Investor
“Ethos Capital” has invested the PIR to convert in B-Corp/ commercial entity
how we assume that he will be accepting when he has investing billions..] </span></i><i><span style="color:black">We understand that Ethos Capital
has said they are evaluating becoming a B Lab B Corp, but this is not the same
thing as a benefit corporation and is instead a non-binding certification. </span></i><i><span style="color:red">[IAS: I suggest that we should use
it as a proof that Ethos Capital has intention to transform the public interest
entity into a B-Corp/ commercial entity. In the same context, we should ask ‘the
Board’ that is this ‘intention’ was in their knowledge or in the knowledge of decision
maker bodies that this faith base public interest entity will be commercialized
by the new investor? If, yes, how they accepted it?]</span></i></p>
<p style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;line-height:normal"><i><u><span style="color:black">Large
parts of the world</span></u></i><i><span style="color:black"> </span></i><i><span style="color:red">[IAS: I suggest that here we have to
use other terms which has higher weightage (weigh-in); e.g. one of the ISOC/PIR
representative has responded like this “the objections are not reported from
the majority of users, which means the majority of the users has no concern who
is running the registry”]</span></i><i><span style="color:black"> are uncomfortable with the Internet being governed entirely by
commercial interests, and <u>many of our members</u> </span></i><i><span style="color:red">[IAS: I suggest that we have to elaborate
“the members”, e.g IGC Members, IGC coalition Partners or perhaps including CSCG]
</span></i><i><span style="color:black">are
deeply uncomfortable with PIR being sold at all. However, incorporation as a
benefit corporation could provide a sturdier path forward if ISOC does proceed
to sell the assets of PIR, and could be </span></i><i><span style="color:red">[IAS: I suggest rephrase “Could have been assured”] </span></i><i><span style="color:black">an effective means of mitigating
against some of the risks that we can foresee emerging from this sale. A
benefit corporation in the right jurisdiction would require the publication of
comprehensive, credible, independent, and transparent annual reports on social
impact and, most importantly, require the organization to consider benefits to
the public in addition to profit when decisions are being made. And, it would
oblige Ethos Capital to honor the promises and commitments it is making today.</span></i><span style="font-size:12pt"></span></p>
<p style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;line-height:normal"><i><span style="color:black">We trust that you
understand why this is important to us. Ethos Capital is an unknown entity, and
in the absence of clear information about their motives behind acquiring PIR
and their sales pitch to investors, the non-profit and non-governmental
communities require assurances that the future of the .ORG, .NGO, and .ONG
domain names that we use for our email, websites, campaigns, and fundraising
efforts are in safe hands. </span></i><i><span style="color:red">[IAS: I suggest add these lines here “Our Data & Privacy is not
being compromised, shared, observed, monitored are not shared or sold to the competitors

commercial exploitation. PIR ran .ORG, .NGO, and .ONG
for the benefit of its users, whereas other top-level
domains are run by private companies with purely
financial objectives. While the interests of companies
and users do at times overlap, they can also conflict,
and when this occurs there are significant human
rights implications. PIR, as a subsidiary of ISOC,
could be relied upon to do what was best for domain
name registrants, and has a proud history of doing
just that. However, PIR also gave ISOC legitimacy and
influence. It allowed ISOC to take an active role in
shaping Internet infrastructure. In relinquishing its
control over PIR, ISOC loses its ability to directly
impact how millions of people around the world
