Although I do understand the motivations to this proposal, I normally
don't like much this feel that may look obvious to many to remove as
much as contact data in order to not be bothered with marketing and
sales content due to the concern that make things more difficult for
legitimate need to get in touch for troubleshooting and legal demands.
If you are operating an Autonomous System and have responsibilities
over it you must be able to be easily contacted in order to deal with
the legitimate demands you commited when you became one, and for that
there will be some burden which if reasonable should be accepted.
I understand the proposal suggests removing it from the bulk access,
but it has not been clear how it will work and how easy it will be for
those with legitimate need to get these contact details, if it will be
with not human interaction or if someone will need to fill a form and
justify, etc ?
Note that "bulk access" in this policy proposal (as I read it -- do
correct me if I'm wrong) specifically refers to this service:
https://www.apnic.net/manage-ip/using-whois/bulk-access/.
The overwhelming majority of network operators in the world do not have
bulk data access agreements with APNIC and would therefore not be
affected in any way by this policy proposal.
