RE: [gnso-rap-dt] Reverse Domain Name Hijacking as a Registration Abuse

["Greg Aaron" <gaaron@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

"Registration" issues can be present after the creation of a domain name.
(We can have PDPs on transfers and post-expiration issues, for example.)
All best,

I've lost track of whether we decided that the only time there can ever be
registration abuse is the instant a domain is first registered. (If we have,
it certainly clears the decks).

But I would argue that the instant of invoking a dispute resolution process
to change a domains registration under duress should also qualify.

And now I'm thinking along these lines, maybe activating any process to
transfer a domain - what if someone is duped into making a transfer (maybe
that's also one of the forms of 'theft' spoken of before) should be able to
be scrutinised under our remit.
