ICANN isn't involved. The registry may be. However I thought that some registrars were cooperating. This group will take down sites that are hosting or selling infringing material. It requires an affidavit, for Sites hosting goods a buy is required. I'm out of the office. But I'll try to find some more information and send it along.

Thanks Fred.
The article cites ICANN......
The owner of the site claims that the seizure occurred suddenly and without warning: "My domain has been seized without any previous complaint or notice from any court! I firstly had DNS downtime. While I was contacting GoDaddy I noticed the DNS had changed. Godaddy had no idea what was going on and until now they do not understand the situation and they say it was totally from ICANN."
I doubt ICANN were involved but if anyone knows otherwise I would be interested to know - this would have an impact on some of the RAP WG recommendations being taken forward.

The US government has today seized a selection of domains belonging to sites associated with peer-to-peer file sharing and counterfeit goods - apparently without notifying their owners nor going through the court systems. - http://www.thinq.co.uk/2010/11/26/homeland-security-goes-domain-capture-spree/
