CALIFORNIA CODES
BUSINESS AND PROFESSIONS CODE
SECTION 17000-17002




17000.  This chapter may be cited as the Unfair Practices Act.



17001.  The Legislature declares that the purpose of this chapter is
to safeguard the public against the creation or perpetuation of
monopolies and to foster and encourage competition, by prohibiting
unfair, dishonest, deceptive, destructive, fraudulent and
discriminatory practices by which fair and honest competition is
destroyed or prevented.



17002.  This chapter shall be liberally construed that its
beneficial purposes may be subserved.

Leah could find this especially interesting.

I can't see why.  If anything the so called alternative roots would appear
to be trying to stifle competition by attempting to stop ICANN from
creating TLD's that exist in competitive roots.  ICANN has not attempted to
stop any competitive root from deploying TLD's.  So this has no bearing on
the situation.

PS...html postings to mailing list is not a good practice.
