ICANN published a report on DNS Abuse that's one of the most interesting<br>
of the last few years. It is based on four years of data but it also<br>
captures things that the EC report completely missed due to its<br>
extremely narrow timeframe. On page 5 of the ICANN report the change in<br>
the kind of abusive registrations from October 2017 to February 2022<br>
shows some kinds of abuse being reduced. This may correlate with a<br>
decline in bulk registrations.<br>

<br>
There is an economic effect with some kind of DNS abuse in that low cost<br>
registration fees enable some kinds of abuse. The SIDN report from a few<br>
years ago also pointed out that there was a major shift of abusive<br>
registrations from the legacy gTLDs to the new gTLDs. That coincided<br>
with heavy discounting in some new gTLDs.<br>
