I feel that making the addresses used for official communication from ARIN
private would make it a lot easier to not spam-block them by accident.
I would support making ADMIN and TECH contacts private, but only under the
circumstances that both a NOC and an ABUSE contact are posted. In fact, I would
say that this is a good manner to get people to post abuse contacts. If you
create listed NOC and ABUSE contacts then your TECH and ADMIN contacts will be
private.
I would also support a policy which suggests that non-working addresses be
eligible for removal. There are several addresses which have abuse contacts
that autorespond to forged addresses (creating backscatter) and inform the user
how to report spam, and they say that they don't accept spam at this address
and don't provide any other. That's non-functional.

Um, no. I just checked and my mail server dropped 12k spam messages to my POC
email address yesterday. That's not a small amount. You must mean "after
filtering" which is part of the problem, as sometimes important communications
get filtered due to this.

While I can't speak for Mike (who originally mentioned this at open
mic during ARIN30), I don't believe his intention was ever to hide all
POCs for an organization or to somehow hide from the global community.
My understanding of his intention was that the public facing contacts
(NOC, peering coordinator, abuse team, legal department) are many
times different then the people who are interacting with ARIN (senior
engineers, architects, etc). Hiding the latter could potentially
*improve* communication, by funneling the external communications
through the intended channels that can actually do something with
those communications.
While I agree with all your points that organizations using public
shared resources should be open and transparent, I really don't think
that's what we're talking about. This is a great discussion to have,
hopefully we can just keep it focused.
Cheers,
Christoph

So I should be able to hide my POCs if I plan to use the addresses only
with private interconnections that don't reach "the public Internet"?

Disagree. We've had this argument repeatedly. Guaranteed uniqueness of
addresses for private interconnection is a perfectly valid reason to
consume addresses from the shared public pool.

That makes no sense at all. Why would you ever need to reach them
*except* to spam them?

Wow... PIZZA-GRAM... that's a great story! (And you typed in on an
iPhone - I don't have the patience!)
I've been known to jump through hoops once or twice to track down
someone at some domain or network, but Michael Siebel has taken it to
the next level. I am seriously impressed! I'll have to remember this
one. I suspect it'll work with Chinese take-out as well?? ;^)
I hope Kyle got a pizza out of the deal anyway?

No. Read again, even just holding the addresses obligates you to be reachable.

By merely holding addresses that could be used by the community you are
consuming community resources and thereby interacting with the community. At
this point you need to be reachable. Holding community resources makes you
part of the community and you then have responsibilities to the community.

Umm, maybe I notice that some evildoer in Barringtonia has hijacked your IP
block and is using it to distribute kiddie porn which will give your child
advocate company a bad name and you haven't noticed yet so I want to be a nice
guy and make you aware of the situation.
Maybe I fell in love with your numbers and want to offer you an obscene amount
of money for them..
Maybe your firewall failed and your private only routing is misconfigured and
is DoS'ing my network.
Requiring publicly available responsive contacts adds accountability and
reduces (even if only minimally) the risk that the resource will be used for
evil.
There are countless other possibilities.

Good story aside, some people may not appreciate the fact that any anonymous
person on earth can track them down, especially the pizza guy had no business
in the network.
I take this story as indication that the current system is lacking concern for
privacy.
