Should we design the DNSagainst capture?
I propose that the best way to lessen the likelihood of capture of a
domain name by the rrichest one of many trademark holders with an interest
in that domain name, is to maximize the number and diversity of TLDs. Part
of achieving such diversity is to make all new gTLDs ambiguous just as the
current three TLDs.
Is .COM for COMmon or COMputer or what?
Is .NET for NETwork or clean (net in French)?
Is .ORG for ORGasm or ORGanic or what?
