“ICANN could invoke emergency powers in its contracts to prevent Whois becoming ‘fragmented’ after EU privacy laws kick in next month,” reports Kevin Murphy in Domain Incite. “Marby told us that he’s “cautiously optimistic” that European data protection authorities will soon provide clear guidance that will help the domain industry become compliant with the General Data Protection Regulation, which becomes fully effective May 25. But he said that a lack of such guidance will lead to a situation where different companies provide different levels of public Whois.”
