One way to provide protection is too allow those who have the domain portion of any domain.(com|net|org|...) to have first dibs for the domain of any new gTLD. i.e. if nanog.org, nanog.com, nanog.net, etc. would have first dibs on nanog.thisisgreatstuff. Or is that too simplistic and fraught with division?
I think the point some people are trying to make is that a person could pony up the fees, get a new TLD, and then EXPECT ${FORTUNE_XXXX_COMPANY} to buy theirname.NEWTLD . Instant market. Might even be able to make the investment back the first year, and nice profit the subsequent ones just for companies keeping their name protected. Tuc/TBOH
