RE: [ga] NSI owns your domain name?

["Christopher Ambler" <cambler@iodesign.com>]

ICANN has made it clear that they have no position nor control over NSI's
policy that has so many people upset. This would, logically, carry forward
to new registries.

As such, I challenge you to craft a policy that you would find acceptable
with
respect to ownership of domain names such that I can present it to
the IOD board with my recommendation that we adopt it and avoid this
problem (and, let's be honest, the bad press that goes with it) in the
first place.

Sound like a good deal?

What's more interesting is that ICANN is failing to make itself relevent in
this area. This is only ONE of a series of complaints that domain owners
have been lodging, since 1995, MHSC being only one of the many. Every
business, on the Internet, has an NSI wielded sword of Damoclese hanging
over it.
