Sorry if it's in the wrong area.

Another reason why the internet needs to be country neutral.

You just have to look at the USA / Cuba issues over domain names and 'trading' with enemy countries.

ccTLD's might see a surge in value

There is no requirement that the complainant provide any proof to back up the allegation or that it be made in good faith, and no penalties are provided to deter bad faith claims. The registrant is afforded no notice that such a complaint has been made or any opportunity to counter the allegation.

In actions brought by a state attorney general or other state official monetary damages could be sought in the amount of actual monetary losses or, in the alternative, statutory damages of $250 per violation up to a maximum of $2 million. However, a court could triple the statutory damages award, up to a maximum of $6 million

Violations would be subject to fines and imprisonment of up to five years.

...So if you're a UK citizen you'll probably get extradited to the USA! :shock:

I don't think you can get extradited for monetary damages...
