  Well, there is a section where we note this as well: https://lsd.gnunet.org/lsd0001/#name-abuse-mitigation https://lsd.gnunet.org/lsd0001/#name-abuse-mitigation Abuse through name confusion is possible, of course. I do not think this can be solved while at the same time supporting i18n. The real question is: What is the attack vector and how can it be mitigated. A GNS deployment and the selection of root zones should eventually converge towards a trusted namespace (for each individual user).

The governance policies ("rules") of the zone are expected to "trickle down" the delegation chains or alternatively damage reputation of the parent zone.
