    <blockquote>
      <p>"Inform a variety of constituents regarding the role that ICANN
        plays in the Internet ecosystem. Facilitate solutions to
        challenging problems in a manner consistent with ICANN’s
        mission, remit and policies. Manage and participate in a number
        of cross-organizational projects relating to safeguards with the
        goal of addressing a variety of kinds of abuse and illegal
        activity, including spam/malware, intellectual property
        infringement, the unlawful sale and distribution of
        pharmaceuticals and controlled substances, and other illegal
        activities on the Internet, particularly where there is a focus
        on multi-stakeholder collaboration and a commitment to promote
        consumer trust in the domain name system.  Work with ICANN’s
        leaders to set the consumer safeguards strategy and plans for
        ICANN."</p>

    <p>I like a consumer trust position. But this doesn't say anything
      about who the person reports to, and the openness of the positions
      activities. E.G., I'd hope we would be able to see if this is
      focused on assuaging the concerns of the pharmaceutical or film
      industries and not name sale abuses by registries or registrars.<br>
    </p>
    <p>But I have a question about the origin of this position. Is this
      something ALS requested? Did this arise from a staff initiative
      that is thought to respond to needs expressed by the ALS? Or
      otherwise? Did the ALS have an opportunity to set the scope of
      this position?<br>
    </p>
    <p>Best,</p>
