I absolutely agree with you.
But if fact, the need to indemnify just decreases the chance that ICANN would defy the comunity.
Of course, that depends on what is "The Community" - which is the reason why I agree with your point above. I would be very concerned if Contracted Parties could use the "Community" to sue ICANN if ICANN was to impose something on them - a right they currently have in the course of renegotiating contracts. I see danger in building a potential infernal machine that could ultimately see ICANN self-destroy. This could be used by clever lawyers to exert pressure.
Good point. But I think that limiting the recipients to be the AC/SO or those who represent them, we are ok.
Kind regards,
