ICANN recently had some choice words [1] about blockchain DNS systems like Handshake and ENS. [1] https://www.icann.org/en/blogs/details/buyer-beware-not-all-n

  I don’t see any choice words about Handshake or ENS, only about registrars that allow people to purchase them without making it clear they won’t work on most computers in the default configuration

    > only about registrars that allow people to purchase them without making it clear they won’t work on most computers in the default configuration I disagree with your statement in its entirety. The article I linked specifically argued that registrars absolutely make it clear. From the article: > When you go to a registrar's website and hover over such names or look for a disclaimer, it generally says something like "these domain names are not yet compatible with most traditional DNS systems."

      The very next line is > The term "yet" may be misleading to Internet users. Their argument is that it's not absolutely clear.
