Hi,

I was arguing that as far as I know, countries had no international jurisdiction over scripts and alphabets (though they may claim them) and that ICANN should not get involved in trying to define such a 'right' and thus giving countries an enhanced ability to prohibit various strings, e.g. censure, in their chosen script or language.

Avri --

Strongly agreed.  Governments have no special rights nor privileges here.
