I just said that an Antigua based betting company will be ill-advised to try to take up a closed gTLD in its name and conduct its business under it, because it is liable to be seized whenever US authorities want to do so (by their jurisdiction control over ICANN) . Same is true of a drug company, say from India, planning global e-com trade of generic drugs. It will also be ill-advised to risk a closed gTLD in its name to do such global business, for the same reason.
I thought that this has to do with the jurisdiction of the registry and the rregistrar itself. And while it may cause concern because there are not as many registries and registrars in non US jurisdictions, there are some and could be more in time. It may also mean that greater efforts should be taken to inform people of the jurisdiction their registration is under and whose laws they are subject to, but I do not see how the location of ICANN main office or place of incorproation affects this issue.
In any case aren't the issues relatiing to the jurisdiction of registries and registrars among the ones being discussed in the Juris sub group?
But the conversation has been quite far ranging so could well be missing the point of the disagreement.
