According to Leibowitz, FTC used the Whois database in their investigations and they used it as a first step in identifying individuals engaged in illegal internet activities and stop them from committing fraud and infecting internet users with spam and spyware. In connection, FTC asked the GNSO to reconsider its position and reverse its decision to limit the accessibility of the Whois database for technical purposes only and encouraged ICANN to implement additional measures to improve the accuracy and completeness of information provided by registrants of domain names in the Whois database.<ref></div></td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #a3d3ff; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div><ins class="diffchange diffchange-inline">On June </ins>2006, Leibowitz attended the ICANN Meeting in Marrakech, Morocco and spoke about the importance of the accuracy of the Whois database in law enforcement in the United States and around the world in protecting consumers.

After attending the ICANN Meeting in Morocco, Leibowitz said that ICANN understood FTC's concern and the GNSO re-evaluated its decision and the internet governing body is "committed in doing the right thing." Furthermore, he said that the US Safe Web Act is another way to collaborate with foreign law enforcement agencies to fight online fraud and protect American consumers in the global market.<ref>[ORAL STATEMENT OF COMMISSIONER JON LEIBOWITZ on “Internet Governance: The Future of ICANN”]</ref></ins></div></td></tr>
