*# [[Registrant]]s are less likely to receive ICANN "Integrity" conditions as they are more concerned about their own domain name registrations than about ICANN
*# [[Registrant]]s are less likely to receive ICANN "Integrity" conditions as they are more concerned about their own domain name registrations than about ICANN
*# "Confidential External Business Information" conditions are less likely to be imposed on internet [[:Category:Non-Profit|non-profits]], as they are more interested in ICANN’s interface with [[Internet Governance]] than third-party business interests.<ref>[file:///C:/Users/jesri/Downloads/sclaydidp%20(1).pdf Sarah Clayton, Which Authors of ICANN Documentary Information Disclosure Policy Requests Are Likely to Receive Defined Conditions of Non-Disclosure in ICANN’s Response?]</ref>

* Indian stakeholders have cited difficulties in accessing documents under DIDP and asked for greater transparency.<ref>[https://www.ohchr.org/Documents/Issues/Expression/IntOrganizations/CCG_NLU.pdf Centre for Communication Governance at National Law University, Delhi Submission to the United Nations Special Rapporteur on Freedom of Speech and Expression: Study on Access to Information in International Organizations pg. 5]</ref>
** [[Padmini Baruah]], of [[The Centre for Internet and Society]], explains that ICANN deflects most requests for information, using clauses about internal processes, stakeholder discussions, protecting financial interests of third parties (cited in over 50% of the responses up to 2016) to avoid disclosing its [[Contractual Compliance]] audits and reports of abuse to [[registrar]]s. Baruah's complaint is that because ICANN regulates a global public good, it should be far more open.<ref>[https://cis-india.org/internet-governance/blog/peering-behind-the-veil-of-icanns-didp-ii Padmini Baruah, Peering behind the veil of ICANN's DIDP (II), CIS-India]</ref>
Finally, it is extremely disturbing that they have extended full disclosure to only 12% of the requests that they receive. An astonishing 88% of the requests have been denied, partly or otherwise.
