ICANN have ultimate responsibility.Vinton - give me a call if you can't handle
it ;-)
What did they do to help prevent this alleged fraud - before, during or

Which is why I believe them complicit.
Open TLDs should not
give priority to trademarks - it abridges these common words to people.
Trademarks
should have restriced TLDs - it totally removes the need for Sunrise.

that was formed to assume responsibility for the IP address space allocation, protocol
parameter assignment, domain name system management, and root server system management
functions previously performed under U.S. Government contract by IANA and other entities.
