> The recovery solution for this is the ccTLD's dispute resolution policy, and finally my (local) courts. As sexy as that Cocos Islands or Indian Ocean Territory or vanity TLD is, I have a lot more options more easily available to me with my local ccTLD administrator and local courts. I'm pretty much relying on the court's ability to accurately verify my identity as the lock on the back door. I work at a domain name registrar, and I agree completely. In fact, I have recommended this attitude for years¹. Use your local ccTLD if at all reasonable. 1. <https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32802909 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32802909> <https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32801880 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32801880> <https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30598899 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30598899>
