The IESG has received a request from the DNS PRIVate Exchange WG (dprive) to

Operators'
<draft-ietf-dprive-bcp-op-07.txt> as Best Current Practice
The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final
comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the

There is the following statement in Section 1: "These open resolvers
have tended to be at the forefront of adoption of privacy related
enhancements but it is anticipated that operators of other resolver
services will follow".
The title of the draft states that it is about recommendations for
DNS privacy service. On reading the draft I struggled to understand
what is a DNS privacy service.
In Section 1, the draft states that the impact of recent legislative
changes on data pertaining to the users of both Internet Service
Providers and public DNS resolvers is not fully understood. It does
not make sense for the IETF to publish policy guidance when there
isn't an adequate understanding of the data protection implications.
The draft states that a desired operational impact is that all
operators (both those providing resolvers within networks and those
operating large public services) can demonstrate their commitment to
user privacy thereby driving all DNS resolution services to a more
equitable footing." The statement comes out as being
aspirational. Is that the case?
The draft states that choices for users would (in this ideal world)
be driven by other factors e.g. differing security policies or minor
difference in operator policy rather than gross disparities in
privacy concerns. It is unaligned with reality to formulate a
statement on an ideal world.
In Section 5.2.1, legal requirements is listed as a threat. Did the
authors assess the laws in different jurisdictions to support that conclusion?
