Growth in registrations was somewhat slower over the first quarter of 2009 but .eu registrations did continue to grow. By the end of the first quarter, .eu domain name registrations had increased in nearly every EU country and grown by 48 048 .eu equals quality. domain names, or 1.6%, to three million. Within the European Union, the market for .eu and national domain names was similar “Some values are to the market for gTLD domain names such as .com, .net, .org, .info and .biz. eternal, no matter During downturns it is common for organisations to cut their services or offerings. That is not an option for us. One of our what the economic unique challenges as the .eu registry is to support the roughly 900 accredited .eu registrars in the 23 official EU languages. No other registry has a similar challenge. climate.” We welcome meeting that challenge. But we do not want to stop there. We want to continuously improve our service as well as the .eu infrastructure. That is why we commissioned a video tutorial on the new Flexible Promo Credit Programme, a new form of outreach to our registrars. It is also why we introduced a new chat line as a pilot project. We expect to continue to experiment with new and improved forms of communication to both registrars and the public. Our registrars deserve our best efforts to support them. They, in turn, support registrants who depend on .eu every day. Those users include some of Europe’s best-known companies, such as Bridgestone, the MAN Group, Versace and the UniCredit Group. These companies rely on .eu because it puts them on the map. It Marc Van Wesemael tells the world they are European. As these users know, .eu equals quality. Some values are eternal, no matter what the economic climate.

To me, the .eu domain name carries a very strong subconscious connotation of the best in Europe. Any institution or any company that really wants to express its Europeanness should go for it today, rather than tomorrow.” Marc Beckers, Unicreditgroup.eu 6 EURID’S QUARTERLY PROGRESS REPORT International During the first quarter of 2009, EURid participated in the EURid continued to provide updates on .eu via presentations at following events: several of the aforementioned meetings.

  • Blockchain Onder De Loep
    INNOVATIE IN DE OPSPORING: BLOCKCHAIN ONDER DE LOEP Masterproef neergelegd tot het behalen van de graad van Master in de Criminologische Wetenschappen door (01511852) Vrolix Thomas Academiejaar 2018-2019 Promotor: Commissaris: Prof. dr. Verhage Antoinette Slabbekoorn Geert “Every once in a while, a new technology, an old problem, and a big idea turn into an innovation.” Dean Kamen Executive summary DOEL – Een bijdrage leveren aan de kennisontwikkeling omtrent de inzet en toepassing van de blockchaintechnologie binnen de geïntegreerde politie en de impact ervan op criminaliteit, door de kansen en bedreigingen van blockchain in kaart te brengen. RELEVANTIE – Blockchaintechnologie wordt beschouwd als een disruptieve technologie die een grote impact zal hebben in tal van sectoren en die zich leent tot tal van toepassingen. Daarnaast omarmen ook criminelen blockchain. Het Nationaal Politioneel Veiligheidsbeeld toont aan dat criminelen vaak ‘first adopters’ zijn van de nieuwe technologische mogelijkheden. Daarnaast experimenteren vele overheden en ondernemingen met blockchaintechnologie. Het antwoord op de vraag of blockchaintechnologie ook kansen kan bieden voor de geïntegreerde politie, is zeer relevant. BENADERING – In een eerste stap werd nagegaan wat de barrières en hinderpalen zijn bij het digitaal forensisch onderzoek. De grote opsporingsvraagstukken vandaag de dag liggen immers vooral op het terrein van één van de belangrijkste misdaadproblemen van het huidige tijdsgewricht: high-tech crime. In een volgende stap werd nagegaan wat de basiseigenschappen zijn van blockchaintechnologie. Met deze basiseigenschappen in het achterhoofd werd vervolgens eerst gekeken naar de mogelijkheden die ze bieden binnen de criminele wereld, om te begrijpen waarom politiediensten aandacht moeten hebben voor deze technologie. Daaropvolgend werden de basiseigenschappen van blockchain afgetoetst aan de barrières en hinderpalen bij het digitaal forensisch onderzoek en de (werk)processen binnen de geïntegreerde politie.

  • The Regulation of Abusive Activity and Content: a Study of Registries' Terms
    INTERNET POLICY REVIEW Journal on internet regulation Volume 9 | Issue 1 The regulation of abusive activity and content: a study of registries’ terms of service Sebastian Felix Schwemer Centre for Information and Innovation Law (CIIR), University of Copenhagen, Denmark, [email protected] Published on 31 Jan 2020 | DOI: 10.14763/2020.1.1448 Abstract: This paper studies the role of domain registries in relation to unlawful or unwanted use of a domain name or the underlying website content. It is an empirical and conceptual contribution to the online content regulation debate, with specific focus on European country code top-level (ccTLD) domain name registries. An analysis of the terms of service of 30 European ccTLD registries shows that one third of the registries contain some use-related provision, which corresponds to approximately 47% of registered domains. The analysis also turns towards examples of notice-and-takedown mechanisms, the emergence of proactive screening and the practice of data validation. Based on the analysis, it calls for more clarity and transparency regarding domain registries’ role in content- or use-related takedowns.

    EUROPEAN COMMISSION Brussels, 4.12.2017 COM(2017) 725 final REPORT FROM THE COMMISSION TO THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL On the implementation, functioning and effectiveness of the .eu Top-Level Domain EN EN 1. BACKGROUND In April 2016, the .eu Top-Level Domain (TLD) celebrated its 10th anniversary. Over the past ten years, the .eu country code Top Level Domain (ccTLD) has continued to market itself as an innovative and modern extension, very much able to both catch up with the legacy TLDs, which have been in the domain environment for three decades, and to compete with the new generic Top-Level Domains (gTLDs) which were introduced in 2014. At the end of Q1 2017, the .eu TLD was the 7th largest country code TLD in the world.1 With over 3.7 million registrations, the .eu TLD has established itself as a valuable option for any European resident choosing a domain name for their Internet presence. In line with Article 8 of Regulation (EC) No 733/2002 on the implementation of the .eu TLD, the Commission is required to submit a report to the European Parliament and the Council one year after the adoption of the Regulation, and every two years thereafter. This Report concerns the implementation, functioning, and effectiveness of the .eu TLD over the past two years, in particular during the period from 1st April 2015 to 31st March 2017. 2. THE .EU LEGAL FRAMEWORK AND BASIC PRINCIPLES The .eu TLD was established by the following legal acts: – Regulation (EC) No 733/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22nd April 2002 on the implementation of the .eu TLD (as amended)2; – Commission Regulation (EC) No 874/2004 of 28th April 2004 laying down public policy rules (PPR), concerning the implementation and functions of the .eu TLD, and the principles governing registration (as amended).3 EURid is the current Registry operator, responsible for the organisation, administration and management of the .eu TLD and its variants in other scripts.
