Name: Frank Schilling Organization: PTI Position: CEO I am writing to protest your policies and your perception of "Bad Faith" in regard to the holding of domain names. I feel your addition of peoples names, geographical areas and tradenames is oppressive to existing domain holders and smacks of "internet micro-management". You are quickly moving down a path of where domain holders rights to their registered names are constantly called into question. This creates uncertainty in the name space, stymies capitalism, limits growth potential on the web and will inevitably lead to a backlash. The real reason for your tough stance is incredibly transparent and shallow. You are selling hope to the millions of people who failed to register their domain name of choice. Your are offering these people a soft shoulder to cry on, a chance to re-write history and some teeth to take existing name-holders rights away. The reprocusions of your arbitrators actions are far reaching. You are attempting to legislate the internet's future growth. Domain names "are the Internet" and I feel your liase-fair attitude and your arbitrators liberal interpretation of "Bad Faith" is doing ireperable harm to the name space. Your actions show incredible lack of judgement and bad faith in of themselves. The internet was created in America at the American tax payers expense. Your arbitrators actions could not run more counter to the American ideals of capitalism and oportunity for all. Frank Schilling. CEO PTI Networks Inc. cc: us congress cc: Icann |
