<p>As promised on the call, here are my comments on question # 5, "How does use of the Protected Marks Lists (e.g. blocking services) affect the utilization of other RPMs?"<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>1. Are we asking this question for a) data collection or b) functional purposes?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>If just to understand things better from a functional level, I can envision an answer along the approximate lines of: <o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Use of blocking services for a particular string prevents the registration of the corresponding domain name by the trademark owner or by a prospective 3rd party registrant (unless there is an "DPML override"), across all TLDs operated by the registry providing
the service. As a result, use of blocking services has the effect of reducing the utilization rate of the mandatory RPMs, such as Sunrise or Claims, for strings that remain in a blocked status.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>2. If for data collection purposes, should we tweak this to ask, "How, and to what extent, does use of the Protected Marks List affect the utilization of other RPMs", in order to quantify the impact of these services?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>To provide an example, if we discovered that 1,000 marks are collectively blocked through these services in 200 TLDs, that will add meaning and context to the overall number of Sunrise registrations.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>In theory, 1,000 blocked strings in 300 TLDs means up to 300,000 domains that may have otherwise been registered during Sunrise, do not get registered in Sunrise because those strings are in a blocked status.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>I understand it may be difficult to obtain this data in practice, but we may want to just get that on the record to ensure the final report is comprehensive and covers all the bases.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Sorry for the long note, and please let me know of any questions.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Hope everyone in the States has a great Holiday weekend!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Best, Claudio<o:p></o:p></p>
