Many .org’s like the ACLU are mired in politics and thus have enemies.
Remember, not only could a new owner send e-mails posing as somedude@wellknown.org; even worse, they would be able to collect ^all^ the e-mail going to that domain.
I don’t believe for a moment that the ACLU, or Planned Parenthood, or any org of that scale could transition in two or even ten years.
- yabadabadoes 7y agoIf they have truly crazy plans for .org, one can drop a domain name and still block its assignment based on IP infringement.. The oddity here is that no matter what they do it makes no real difference to the kind of organization that regularly hires lawyers. I see this as more of an existential threat that every name connected with ICANN could end up in a free market pricing similar to rent.
