"Domain names,
like public lands, constitute a valuable finite resource initially held in the public
domain. The disposition of domain names, therefore, should be designed to benefit
the world’s people, rather than to benefit those sophisticated enough to obtain accreditation
as a domain name register or crafty enough to pounce on valuable names first.
By auctioning domain names, the value of a domain name would be captured by the public,
rather than by private entities that are rewarded too handsomely for their limited
insights into the possible value of a name or their work as registrars. Yet,
a domain name auction would not interfere with the exploitation and development of
cyberspace, as new names would be allocated by the auction system to those who valued
them most highly. Indeed, it would speed the transfer of a domain name to its
highest valued use, short-circuiting the current system that relies on privately
negotiated sales to transfer the name from its initial owner to its highest valued
user." Did you perhaps enjoy reading Marx while "professing" to be studying
at Law? This is the type of mentality the Free Market is up against!
Let's all just lay down and sacrifice ourselves "to benefit the world’s people",
as our friend here urges. The "professor" of Law indeed!
