Hello Fernando,
If I understood correctly, you're objecting to this proposal on the basis that
removing contact information will make it more difficult for network operators
to find contact information when needed for legitimate purposes, yes? If my
understanding is correct, then your concerns are invalid as this only extends
to the removal of contact information from bulk data. People will still be able
to access info where needed as "The information will still be available via
APNIC-controlled WHOIS services".
If my network AS64500 is seeing malicious traffic from 192.0.2.0/24 being
announced from AS64496, I can browse to https://whois.apnic.net to lookup the
inetnum object and obtain the contact information. If I wish to automate abuse
reports, I can query whois.apnic.net from the command line to get the specific
inetnum object and pipe it to a program to send the automated report. There's
no need for contact info in bulk data.
Regards,Christopher Hawker
