I have been advised that infor.auda.org.au is the correct forum to raise the issue of how some person was able to get my information from the register and to publish it to the DNS List.  Please advise if this is a breach of my privacy under the domain licenses and what steps will be taken to address this situation.  I grant leave under the Privacy act to have any response posted to the DNS list.  For details of the party who released this information please check the DNS list archive which is not as far as I am aware made available to the public at the auda site.

Kind regards

James Guy




Motives? Agendas?

 

Well, it seems that young Mr Guy is something of a domain name king. Below is a list of some names registered to him. Obviously a number of 'law' ones and no problem there as far as I can tell, so far. But, to use some of young Mr Guy’s favourite words, there are some little ‘gems’.

 

1. jazz.org.au and trademarks.org.au - registered to him personally using his personal abn. And how does that fit within the policy precisely? The policy says that org.au registrants must be;

 

a) a charity operating in Australia, as defined in the registrant’s constitution or other documents of incorporation; or

 

b) a non-profit organisation operating in Australia, as defined in the registrant’s constitution or other documents of incorporation.

 

So unless young Mr Guy is a charity or a non-profit organisation then this looks like a breach of the rules to me. I shall be lodging a formal complaint with auDA. Of course under the rules young Mr Guy will have 14 days within which to correct the situation before the registration is cancelled. But, wait a moment, wasn’t he suggesting that giving people the right to correct a registration was wrong….hmm!

 

2. audrp.com.au and audrp.net.au - A little disingenuous, don’t you think, for someone claiming to be acting in the best interests of the DNS to register domain names such as these. And, in any event, how is young Mr Guy entitled to them. He is not a accredited provider of services under the auDRP so where is the close and substantial connection. Again, I shall be lodging a complaint about these registrations with auDA. 

 

3. udrp.com.au and udrp.net.au – see 2 above.
