[wg-c] Faisability question about so called "brand" gTLDs

[Elisabeth PORTENEUVE <Elisabeth.PORTENEUVE@cetp.ipsl.fr>]

This is a faisability question about so called "brand" gTLDs
(or chartered gTLDs -- which might have restrictive registration policies).

I assume that gTLDs will be international (ad absurdum -- if not, they
have to be requested under .us for Americans, .fr for France, ... etc).

Assume that a brand gTLD is set, say .law
which suppose it is for lawyers, barrist, etc. Sounds pretty.

How anybody (registrar, registry, ISP, ...) can verify that
Maitre H. Jaune, applying for a domain name "jaune.law"
and claiming to have a degree from the Kerguelen University
in French Southern Territories is real and not virtual-reality ?

I pretend that there is no way on the international level to verify
any request for .law, and as it it will end up similar to .com,
BUT much worst for consumers and lawyers -- all will be misleaded
by .law TLD name.

If my reasonning is correct, the questions about gTLDs
are about something challenging .com/.org/.net, which means
nothing restrictive, and the subject became more specific.

Any comments ?

Kind regards,
Elisabeth
