<div dir="ltr">Of course George is correct on this, wrt ASCII names. But we are seeing punycode (IDN) look-alike names a bit more often rear their ugly heads in the wild. I am unsure how or whether that could realistically be addressed through TMCH/sunrise/claims protection, but probably we all would agree we should protect against them if possible? Anyone have ideas whether it would be possible?<div><br></div><div>Thanks,</div><div>Mike</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br clear="all"><div><div class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div style="font-family:arial;font-size:small">Mike Rodenbaugh</div><div style="font-family:arial;font-size:small">RODENBAUGH LAW</div><div style="font-family:arial;font-size:small">tel/fax: +1.415.738.8087</div><div style="font-family:arial;font-size:small"><a href="http://rodenbaugh.com" target="_blank">http://rodenbaugh.com</a> </div></div></div></div>

Domain names are *not* case sensitive. The owner of Example.com<br>
doesn't need to worry about anyone cybersquatting on eXample.com,<br>
eXAMPle.com, EXAmple.com, eXaMpLe.CoM, etc.<br>
