Theo,
This issue is definitely second to the contract amendments, but still something worth exploring in our attempts to stop malicious action while preserving a good experience for the legitimate user.
Bonus trivia: The Conficker case was the first time I became aware of ICANN, and began studying it as a result. :)
Best,

These threats were neutralized with efforts from LEA's, CP's and ICANN ORG.Best,TheoOn Thu, Feb 23, 2023, at 9:37 AM, Mark W.

Attached, please find the response from Jamie Hedlund, SVP, Contractual Compliance & U.S. Government Engagement.This response will be added to the GNSO’s correspondence page.
