              and Farzaneh have a point when they claim “Governments
              don’t OWN any of these codes”. And I concur with them:
              Governments do not “own” these codes. These codes identify
              a “national subdivision” (IS0 3166-Alpha-2) or a
              “country”; hence they are identifiers. Not “owned” by
              nobody – like the air or the water isn’t “owned” by
              anybody. Yet we still strive to PROTECT the air and the
              water, right? So it is clean and everybody can use it –
              and not one big company can pollute it just to make more
              money.<br>
              <br>
              And that is probably Kavouss’ narrative (a very valuable
              one!): <br>
              That these codes and names (ISO 3166 Alpha-2 & 3 and
              the country names) are important and of utter relevance
              for the people of the respective countries and
              subdivisions; and can’t simply be “taken” by some brand.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

          <p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">Seemingly
              some in this group see “Governments” as kleptomaniac
              entities that try to pry as much “public land” out of this
              gTLD application process as possible. But try to look at
              this from another perspective:<br>
              <br>
              People are organized in hyper large “tribes” – the largest
              organizational entities probably being their countries,
              but also states and cities (hence we are protecting
              exactly these three silos right now). When I lived in
              Germany I felt first and foremost as “Berliner”. As
              opposed to for example to “Bavarian” (who are the natural
              “enemy” of Berliners). I also felt being German of course.
              And European. Berlin, Germany and Europe are extremely
              important identifiers for me and my identity. These three
              geo-entities obviously need to be governed by the people,
              for the people. By a Government of the people. And usually
              in Europe that’s how things are set up (sadly outside of
              Europe sometimes minorities dictate the majority what to
              do – but that’s another issue).<br>
              <br>
              I expect from the Berlin Government (the capital of
              Germany, a German State and on the 3166-2 country
              subdivision list), from the German Government and from the
              European Commission to make sure that the important
              identifiers “.berlin”, “.de”, “.deutschland”, “.germany”,
              “.eu” and “.europe” are safeguarded from abuse or
              exclusive use by some “brand”! That the respective
              authorities make sure that these strings are readily
              available for ME as citizen and business owner (not for
              the Governments) to aid me in creating domain names that
              help identifying my tribe(s). <br>
              <br>
              I EXPECT that Governments “protect” these strings – ON
              BEHALF OF ME and all of the other citizens. This is all
              about the needs of THE PEOPLE, Governments are merely
              identifying such needs, and aid in protecting them.<br>
              <br>
              And the Governments are delivering! They do guard these
              identifiers – and I shall be thankful for it. Hence it
              bewilders me when “brand owners” are attempting to shame
              my elected representatives for protecting MY identifiers.
              By attacking the “Governments” – in reality you attack the
              citizens these Governments have been elected by – and who
              they are govern.

              and outbid the city constituents! A city community owned
              and funded application is always financially “weak” – as
              they have to make all kinds of concessions to the city
              usually. The worst case is somebody coercing a small city
              major into signing a letter of support – and forcing the
              applicants for a large city to buy them out. If such
              applicant is lucky, nobody applied for the large city –
              and he has a city designated gTLD – and would be allowed
              to MARKET it as city TLD! GREAT. The citizens of the large
              city are wholly unprotected from exploitation. If both
              cities are in ONE country – maybe national law can help.
              But if they are in different countries?<br>
              <br>
              We need to better protect the larger city-populations
              (people who live in sizable cities). We create all kinds
              of protections for 3-lettercodes or country subdivisions –
              but we do not protect these very large geo-communities
              very good. Why? Inconsistent. It is OK that we have the
              “non-geo use provision in place for small cities”. But
              SIZEABLE cities need a protection equal to country
              subdivisions (elimination of non-geo use). Even  if we
              were to define “sizable” at a real high number. Million
              people cities mean: at least a million people that
              identify with the name! At least a million people who are
              robbed of their possibility to use city-based gTLD
              domains. A city robbed of their possibility to conduct
              city destination marketing, eGovernment and similar things
              under one nice identifier (usually cities reserve strings
              for official use, such as 911.city, townhall.city,
              visit.city, etc).<br>
              <br>
              Question: If a “brand” (whatever the definition is –
              probably a simple TM registration for US $250 does the
              trick) claims a string; and is in contention with a
              sizeable city:<br>
              If we keep the “non-geo use” loophole alive; what can the
              citizens of such city do? Does the current AGB provide for
              a successful path in “objection” (so called “curative
              rights”)? Or wouldn’t the brand simply declare that they
              have “TM rights” – thus the objection would be
              unsubstantiated? Lawyers here: Would a city objection
              against a brand application have ANY chance of success?
              Please be honest! I know you are fiercely defending your
              position – but I also know that you are honest: how would
              you defend a brand against such objection? Would you
              simply cave in?<br>
              <br>
              We have soon the “consensus call” on city applications –
              but I don’t see that we have a clear understanding of the
              implications of contentions. Yes: in the 2012 round there
              were no problems. But then only a small percentage of
              brands claimed their strings, and only a few cities (of
              which many were capitals) did so. The next wave will
              contain more brands and less capitals but WAY more cities
              – plus “tricksters” will try to make a buck: We need to
              pay more attention.
