To: <internetpolicy () elists isoc org> For those who may have missed it, ISOC's Public Interest Registry is planning to establish by the end of the quarter a new compulsory private arbitration system that would allow copyright owners to cancel .org domain names based on allegations of copyright infringement: http://domainincite.com/21517-the-pirate-bay-likely-to-be-sunk-as-org-adopts-udrp-for-copyright This is also being pushed as an international best practice standard for other domain registries to adopt: https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2017/02/healthy-domains-initiative-censorship-through-shadow-regulation This hardly seems like a measure that's in the "public interest".
