<p class="MsoNormal">It’s a bit like war profiteering. It’s disgusting but not really illegal and probably shouldn’t be. Buying up domains with a likely value isn’t itself DNS Abuse or even DNS “Misuse,” in ANY way. I would argue that these are domains more
likely meant for resale than abuse although if the powers that be refuse to pay a premium, they might get used that way. Let’s be VERY careful about how we position ourselves on this lest we lose the modicum of credibility we have gained the past year. There’s
a LOT of actual DNS Abuse taking advantage of this crisis, so let’s focus on that and continue in our efforts to combat systemic abuse, support predictive analytics, etc. This is a very dangerous path. If anything, it suggests that a restricted domain like
.OLYMPICS would be a good idea.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p>Thank you for these guys. I strongly argue this is exactly the discssion we should be having, and not just within CPWG / AtLarge, but it could be a good place to start. One way of approaching this would be to look at all the "norms" already out there: legal,
as you mention, Wolfgang, but also standards based, as have been named in previous threads. Finding a common ground between and among these (starting with the "used up" example of child porn or the always controversial IP protection) could be a start.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Looking forward to continuing this thread. Thanks,<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Is the abuse "unfair", "tricky", "harmful" or "illegal"? Is this a "freedom" or "market" issue? If it is illegal (under domestic law or international law), it needs a response (and a procedure). This is a slippery slope. ICANN is not the
"Content Police" of the Internet. But somebody has to look at such cases. Any idea?

Is this domain name abuse or domain name investment? <br>
