Interesting observation, Ayden. To be taken seriously, but also to be approached in a cooperative manner... it might be a mistake in good faith after all. Anyway, another attestation that "metrics" and "data" are not necessary the solution to a better understanding of a policy or community problems, as are open to interpretations, too :-)

Oggetto: Questionable ICANN statistics

See this email exchange<http://mm.icann.org/pipermail/atlarge-review-wp/2017-February/000374.html>. ICANN staff claimed a public document on the ICANN website had been downloaded zero times since it was uploaded. A member of the At-Large community corrected the record, noting that they had downloaded that file several times. I too had downloaded it. So it seems we should be very careful taking ICANN at its word when it comes to statistics. I cannot help but think back to last week at the Intersessional when the SVP Contractual Compliance and Consumer Safeguards spoke about how the Compliance pages were the most visited on the ICANN website. I hate to be so cynical, but maybe the analytics function just doesn't work — like much of the ICANN website?
