Staff recommends that readers interested in specific aspects of any of the summarized comments, or the full context of others, refer directly to the specific contributions at the link referenced above (View Comments Submitted). Comments on Study and Staff Proposal Timing ALAC remains concerned that this matter is Being dealt with at such a late stage of the New gTLD Process. ALAC urges the Board to investigate how and why this crucial issue could have Been ignored for so long and how similar occurrences may be prevented in the future. ALAC (27 Aug. 2013) While IPC welcomes ICANN’s identification of the name space collision issue and proposals for mitigation, ICANN’s actions at this late stage reduce external institutional confidence in ICANN, inject a degree of douBt into, and magnify potential security risks associated with, the new gTLD process. IPC (17 Sept. 2013) It is difficult to understand why the Interisle report was rushed at the last minute, when the collision issue and other stability issues have Been so thoroughly examined for so long over the more than 8- year process leading to new TLDs. Staff has inexplicably migrated to a new process; the community was denied the opportunity to contriBute to the discussion Before any report was produced and implemented (demonstrated By the unilateral decision to delay contracting for TLDs in the 20%). Instead the community was presented with a fait accompli statement aBout what should happen and what is happening without sufficient regard for accurate data due to the rushed nature.

  • XYZ Defeats .COM in “David Vs. Goliath” Lawsuit XYZ Wins Lawsuit Against Verisign in Summary Judgment
    Contact: Shayan Rostam Global Director of Registry Operations, .xyz [email protected] .XYZ Defeats .COM in “David vs. Goliath” Lawsuit XYZ Wins Lawsuit against Verisign in Summary Judgment Los Angeles, CA -- On October 26, 2015, XYZ, the registry operator behind .xyz - the world’s most popular new domain extension - announced the company had defeated Verisign, Inc. (NASDAQ: VRSN) in a lawsuit dating back to December 2014. By granting XYZ a victory on summary judgment, the court found that XYZ won the case as a matter of law because there were no triable issues for a jury. The trial was originally scheduled to begin on November 2, 2015. Verisign, best known for operating .com and .net, alleged that XYZ lied when it published the registration numbers reflecting its tremendous growth and made statements about registrants having a hard time finding good .com domain names. Many believed the lawsuit was a classic example of “David vs. Goliath,” with the industry incumbent attempting to litigate new competition out of business. XYZ states that it knew Verisign’s claims were not legitimate and had no choice but to defend itself. Although legal bills were in the seven-figure range, XYZ made a stand for every startup and small business that is bullied by large, established companies. “At the time the lawsuit was filed, .xyz had only been globally available for 6 months. We were shocked that an industry-giant would file such claims against my small business. I also took it as a compliment,” said XYZ’s CEO and Founder Daniel Negari. According to XYZ’s General Counsel, Grant Carpenter, “these tactics appear to be part of a coordinated anti-competitive scheme by Verisign to stunt competition and maintain its competitive advantage in the industry.” In line with the purpose of ICANN’s gTLD program, the mission of .xyz is to provide internet users with competition and choice when selecting a domain name.

  • Which Internet Registries Offer the Best Protection for Domain Owners?
    Which Internet registries offer the best protection for domain owners? Jeremy Malcolm, Senior Global Policy Analyst, EFF Gus Rossi, Global Policy Director, Public Knowledge Mitch Stoltz, Senior Staff Attorney, EFF July 27, 2017 ELECTRONIC FRONTIER FOUNDATION PUBLIC KNOWLEDGE 1 In the Internet’s early days, those wishing to register their own domain name had only a few choices of top-level domain to choose from, such as .com, .net, or .org. Today, users, innovators, and companies can get creative and choose from more than a thousand top-level domains, such as .cool, .deals, and .fun. But should they? It turns out that not every top-level domain is created equal when it comes to protecting the domain holder’s rights. Depending on where you register your domain, a rival, troll, or officious regulator who doesn’t like what you’re doing with it could wrongly take it away, or could unmask your identity as its owner—even if they are from overseas. To help make it easier to sort the .best top-level domains from the .rest, EFF and Public Knowledge have gotten together to provide this guide to inform you about your choices. There’s no one best choice, since not every domain faces the same challenges. But with the right information in hand, you’ll be able to make the choice that makes sense for you. Before proceeding it’s worth noting the difference between a registry and a registrar. The domain registry is like a wholesaler, who operates an entire top-level domain (TLD) such as .com.

  • Ben Crawford Interview Transcript in PDF Format
    DomainSherpa.com: The Domain Name Authority CentralNic's Path to Growth in the New Gold Rush - With Ben Crawford Watch the full video at: http://www.domainsherpa.com/ben-crawford-centralnic-interview/ When the Gold Rush happened in the mid-1800s in California, it is an often- stated saying that few people got rich, except the people who sold the pickaxes and the shovels. The analogy can be made to the domain name industry. Want to find out who is positioned well for the next Gold Rush, and how you might be able to benefit? Stay tuned. I have three short sponsor messages before we get into today's show. First, if you have a great domain name and nothing to show when people visit, you're missing out on potential advertising revenue, leads, and partnership opportunities. NicheWebsites.com can build you a site quickly with a price option to suit any need -- but as their tagline says, they don't just build websites, they build businesses. Second, if you're buying or selling a domain name or portfolio and you want an estimate of it's value, Estibot.com is the place to go. Just like you'd visit Zillow.com to get an estimate of a house value, Estibot.com provides key information about the most important statistics so you can make an informed decision based on data. Finally, DNX.com is a domain name exchange that uses a reverse auction platform to provide fair market prices for quality domain names that are manually filtered by an experienced broker.
