I'm just gonna sift through the filibustering and address what sticks out: > "I mean, I literally went and changed the email on a domain to check if what you said was true. And validated that your claim was false." You changed it on your domain, on your registrar. This doesn't the slightest invalidate the requirements and procedures that I am faced with when doing the same with my domain/TLD, on my registrar, abiding to domestic laws in my country. > "Quite simply, the idea that forgetting to update an email in a domain record means someone else owns your domain is ignorant of the law and how thing things work." It means what I said: the contact in the record is the legal owner of the domain, and also has rights to confirm a domain transfer, to alter the other contact records, and to change the NS records of the domain, no matter if that contact/e-mail is still me or someone else. In the case of my TLD (.se) that contact is also the only one who's legally allowed to obtain an unredacted WHOIS from the registry. This information is not public for .se.

This keep this very on point. This is about whether or not losing access to a domain name means you lose ownership. > abiding to domestic laws in my country. Just to confirm, you country is Sweden, right? The Court of Justice of the European Union ruled that a domain name is property. All member states of the EU must implement and have laws that follow EU laws. This means that the Court Of Justice of the European Union's decision must be upheld in all EU countries of they face penalties. This is echod by the Swedish Supreme court's deicision that domains are property that can be seized in The Pirate Bay case. Sweden like every other country has written laws and case law on the ownership of property. This stuff was solved and settled so many years ago it's hard to even guess when. So let's put a line under this. In the country of Sweden your domain name is property of you, by law. Ownership of property doesn't change hands because you registered an gmail address. Just like ownership of property doesn't change hands because you move into an address that someone was previously there. I'm sure Sweden has laws about mail. Just because it arrived at your address does not make it yours.
