TLDも自由化

パリで開かれたICANNの理事会が、次のような提案を受け入れた。
This proposal allows applicants for new names to self-select their domain name so that choices are most appropriate for their customers or potentially the most marketable. It is expected that applicants will apply for targeted community strings such as (the existing) .travel for the travel industry and .cat for the Catalan community (as well as generic strings like .brandname or .yournamehere). There are already interested consortiums wanting to establish city-based top level domain, like .nyc (for New York City), .berlin and .paris.

今まで、toyota.comとか登録して不正競争をすれば、ドメインネーム紛争となり、また不正競争防止法違反となった。

TLDでも同じことであろう。
