ICANN Versus Legal Dilemma In A Domain Name Property Case
In a recent action the US authorities enabled ICANN to deal with a case which involved the possibility for victims of terrorism of getting control over Iran’s ccTLD.
The decision of the court had to deal with the issue of legality over the question if domain names can be taken away as a form of compensation for someone, especially since no similar cases have been met before.
What was brought forth was the idea that the services of a domain names provider have a separate and intangible status and cannot be given out as compensation for the only reason that a country is somehow related to the issue in question.
That being said, it came as a general rule to be followed that domain names are operated by their administrators of registries and cannot and will not be used as a form of property to be given to third parties. As a consequence, ICANN issued a press release stating the above ideas.
The solution that was given by the court is still disputed by the community of users who have put a lot of pressure lately on ICANN’s status and its relation with the US Government and would rather see their prerogatives transfered to an internationally ruled organization instead.
