Rubens - re the conclusion that "nothing surfaced", were you expecting consumer complaints related to MiTM issues to be reported to ICANN?

The intersection of name collision risk and DNS Abuse is a topic that needs to be addressed, especially given how hard it is now to find scammers.

Attackers don't do MiTM attacks just for proof of concept; they go ahead and actually do something like stealing money or information. Of those episodes, some would have noticed the crime, reported it to authorities, which then would trigger investigations and at same point people would know that it happened.

And yet, years after the delegations, nothing surfaced.
