  2. Comment - ICANN moves toward completely opening top-level domains

    (Jun 27, 2008 - 1:18 PM)

    Nobody owns the com, net, org (etc) TLD's, so why should one be able to create a TLD of their own and still own it? I think they should just open up a process to allow creation of new and OPEN TLD's so people can create domains underneath them that can then be used for any purpose and aren't owned by anyone. So, you could have ".decatur" TLD and then Georgia can HAVE "georgia.decatur" and Illinois can have "illinois.decatur", or whatever, as long as nobody literally OWNS the actual TLD itself. The structure we have now works great where nobody can claim ownership of the TLD. It's probably not a good idea.
