Hi Carlos,
However, in attributes where professional contact data is supposed to be, there shouldn't be any kind of filtering.
Just reading this makes me think a bit. Why would anyone need historical contact information? And how do those needs exceed the trade off with potentially having names of employees from 5 years ago in the database, etc.? -Cynthia On Wed, Apr 14, 2021 at 8:24 PM Carlos Friaças via db-wg <db-wg@ripe.net> wrote:
Hi,
Yes, historical data should be one of the requirements the RIPE Database must fulfill.
Filtering personal data in attributes that are not meant to contain personal data seems to be a good idea.

Dear colleagues,
As part of our work in the RIPE Database Requirements Task Force (DBTF), we are trying to understand if providing historical data is one of the requirements the RIPE Database must fulfil. Currently some attributes are filtered out to limit the exposure of unnecessary personal data. If providing historical data is a requirement the RIPE Database must fulfill, we will recommend the RIPE NCC to examine if additional filtering can be applied to limit further the unnecessary exposure of personal data in attributes that are not meant to contain personal data.
We are looking specifically for arguments pro or against this recommendation. We?ll then discuss each argument with the task force and make a decision.
Kind regards, Bijal on behalf of the DBTF
