[ga] ICANN vs. Reality



L. Touton:

"In fact, the offering of defensive registrations appears likely to minimize
some of the start-up issues that can arise in a TLD's introduction. Giving
those with registered trademark rights a simple vehicle to block conflicting
registrations should minimize the potential for one type of lawsuit that can
complicate a TLD's introduction."

Reality:

ICANN AND REGISTRARS SUED OVER SUNRISE PERIOD OF NEW TLDS
An Orlando Business Journal report suggests that ICANN and
registrars including Afilias have been sued by a Florida man
over the use of sunrise periods for new TLDs.  The suit
claims ICANN required registrars to include the sunrise
provisions in the new TLDs.  ICANN declined comment.
