- CameronNemo 3y agoBecause ICANN does not have sovereignty over ccTLDs, which are considered nation-state assets. The customer protections are much better for generic TLDs.
- marcthe12 3y agoccTLD which this is the part is supposed to be under full control of the government of the owning country. It is supposed to be for local used. So such TLDs are equivalent of opening a shop in the country so they are free to do so.
