As an end user individual and constantly learning about this issue I feel that At Large can only be attentive to any aspect that might impact directly the end user. As mentioned previously, we do not have the resources to develop a campaign to inform the end user of a process that he/she does not really have anything to do but feel "confident" that the website / service is reliable.

I have the impression that end users would not bother to understand the concepts. However, Olivier brings to the table the "Why can't we strive to make *all* domains safe?" That should be our goal. The question is, how?

I agree that the majority of "end-users" may not know the difference between the gTLDs and the ccTLDs. But we - as representative for the "end-users" should not mix the TLDs in our responses. Maybe we should add another «tag” to "end-user perspective": "(how to) educate end-users".

We had that discussion too. :-)
Unfortunately the ALAC/At-Large does not have the mass global media impact to educate all Internet users. Some felt that putting the ball in the user's side of the fence was akin to blaming the "victim" for not being knowledgeable enough.
Why can't we strive to make *all* domains safe?

Kindest regards,

Olivier
