I would say that the net positive having this information provides the ICANN is not outweighed by the net negative to website owners (hassle to manage admin if you own 100s of domains like some superusers here do, privacy concerns, identity theft, physical intimidation)
- cdubzzz 10y agoThat's perfectly fair. I don't think we needed government intervention or fire hydrants to get there (: I do like the public nature of this information and have used it for legitimate purposes on many occasions, but privacy concerns are valid. Not sure how to solve that one. Anyway as I stated originally, I am no fan of ICANN's process here, but currently it is what it is so the responsibility, particularly of superusers, is to understand and have systems in place for compliance. I simply do not buy the "too many domains" and "who uses email" excuses presented in the post.
- salesguy222 10y agoI agree with you, especially on your last part, when we apply the analogy to cars as well "i have too many cars, so i shouldn't need to worry about if i park some of them in front of fire hydrants" i would say that im struggling to understand a situation where the confiscation of a domain or a car is ever warranted, unless something criminal and clearly urgent (a fire, a drug running operation) needs to be stopped, rather than just as bureaucratic overreach to ensure payment and compliance
