Is ICANN Restricting Free Enterprise?
Summary:
ICANN should allow anyone capable of managing a TLD to register it if it's available. The process should resemble domain name registration but with additional technical requirements, serving as a higher-level registry.Article:
A Call to ICANN:
Allow individuals and businesses to create and register a Top-Level Domain (TLD) if it's available, they have the necessary technical skills, and are willing to market it. This should be as straightforward as registering a domain name, albeit with extra technical prerequisites. ICANN should function as the central registry for TLDs.
Imagine if domain registrars like GoDaddy or eNom required you to submit a business plan or a non-refundable fee before letting you register a domain name. It would be absurd if they dictated which names were available, much like a hypothetical scenario where GoDaddy decides which domains to release, accepts applications, and reviews business plans before approval.
Comparing Domains and Subdomains:
Consider an analogy: if "info.com" were still available and I owned it, I could sell subdomains like "car.info.com." The relationship between domains and subdomains mirrors that of TLDs and domains. The only difference is the hierarchical level.
ICANN’s Role and Free Enterprise:
ICANN’s current process of deciding who can create or manage TLDs restricts free trade. Much like obtaining a business license in a city, you shouldn’t need to prove financial stability or expertise; simply pay the registration fee.
In America and other countries that value free enterprise, ICANN’s restrictions infringe on citizens' rights. With ICANN operating under American law, this limitation on creating TLDs is unwarranted.
A Plea for Open Access:
Eliminate unnecessary auctions and procedures. If someone wishes to launch a TLD, they should be free to register and sell domain names. Success or failure should depend on market dynamics, just like any other business venture.
The artificial restriction of naming spaces to satisfy a few businesses must end.
By allowing open access, ICANN can truly support innovation and entrepreneurship online.
