Re: [db-wg] NWI-13 Geofeed Legal Analysis

2022-09-26 Thread Edward Shryane via db-wg
Dear Colleagues,

There was no support expressed in replies to my proposal to improve the 
"geofeed:" validation rules (see below, from July). Given this, the DB team 
will leave the current validation rules as-is, pending the outcome of the 
discussion on "geofeed:" and the database T's.

Regards
Ed Shryane
RIPE NCC

On Thu, Jul 28, 2022 at 9:50 PM, Cynthia Revström  wrote:
I am not sure how you came to that conclusion, the way I read Maria's email 
didn't make me come to a conclusion anything like that.

Maria said:

The RIPE Database is meant to contain specific information for the purposes 
that are defined in the RIPE Database Terms and Conditions.

The RIPE DB T and the DBTF report are not the same and the RIPE DB T could 
be amended.

Maria also says:

If the community's interests have changed since then and it is now agreed that 
geolocation is one of the purposes the RIPE Database must fulfil, this should 
be decided via the community's processes and reflected in the RIPE Database 
Terms and Conditions.

I feel like this directly goes against what you are saying, it seems very clear 
to me that it is possible to change the purposes.



I'll also note that Maria's initial email said: "personal data that is not 
required or necessary for the currently defined purposes of the RIPE Database" 
with "currently defined" written in big, bold, flashy letters. It then 
continues with the paragraph you have quoted above: "If the community's 
interests have changed since then and it is now agreed that geolocation is one 
of the purposes the RIPE Database must fulfil, this should be decided via the 
community's processes…"

I happen to think that Geofeed could easily fall into:
"Publishing routing policies by network operators (IRR)" — part of my "routing 
policy" is that 192.0.2.0/24 is in Cologne, and that seems useful for you to 
know to build your policy as well
and / or
"Facilitating coordination between network operators (network problem 
resolution, outage notification etc.)" — you are seeing long latency to 
192.0.2.0/24? Geofeeds tells you that that is in Warsaw, so when you contact me 
you can say something like "200ms seems like a long time to get from Berlin to 
Warsaw… perhaps we can not route this through Singapore??""
and / or
"Scientific research into network operations and topology" — you are doing 
Internet measurements on latency. Why does traceroute to 192.0.2.0/24 take 3ms 
and 203.0.113.0/24 take 89ms? Well, Geofeeds tells you that one is in Akureyri 
and the other is in Lisbon. Seems like worth knowing…

But, the bolding of "currently defined" and the "If the community's interests 
have changed since then…" seems to imply that it is at least worth discussing 
if we can add Denis suggestion of ""The RIPE Database may contain data that an 
agreed set of external services may use, require or rely on." and if it does 
actually need "a resolution by the GM to change the T", etc.

Even if we successfully argue that Geofeeds fits into one of the above 
examples, it does seem like having the T reflect what people want to be able 
to use the DB for…
