< ICANN and IOD. IANA is a defunct organization that
no longer exists.
Yes, and when it went defunct, it passed to ICANN, the standing
agreements and existing policies that were in existence.

Marc Brittan, it should be blatantly obvious to anybody that he has not registered
those names soley for personal use. If you can't see that, then you're not looking
very hard. Enough said. >>>>>>
Define "personal use." Furthermore,
PROVE the intent you ascribe to him. Don't just say, "We all know, we can all see,
it is apparent."
If you are going to take something from someone--which they paid
for--in process that was open and fair--then PROVE your proclamations that he had
dubious motives. The burden, last I saw, is on you.
In the end, even if he was
a confessed speculator--you can not convict him of a NON-EXISTENT crime.
You
know something, though. You can't use the numbers of domains he has and logically
conclude that he doesnt intend to use them I know someone who owns 600 .coms. About
500 of them are currently up and running--and he is not interested in selling them,
though he gets offers. If Marc Brittain has 400--would you take his from him?
If
I had 400 domains or more, I would create a corporation and develop off-shoot companies
under different managements. This would create jobs, for one thing. And revenue,
and taxes.
Isn't this fully legal in my world?
