Jonathan: I beg to demur. I went to some lengths to get the European Union OUT of .INT,
OK?
To date, .INT is still owned by ICANN itself. Enough said.

That speculators would try to cash in is a feature of ICANN policy, and it's too late to turn back that clock, I don't see any abuse of registrants going on, and abuse of end-users won't occur unless some of these speculative domains are used for phishing.

As a body with observer status at the UN, the IOC would qualify easily under .INT from which it could develop a complete official domain hierarchy. End users would know (and could be messaged) that the only legit official olympic domains would be under .INT and that would be the end of the problem.

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.

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.

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?
