I am coming at this from the ccTLD perspective, remember? Where we are used to having approximately 250 different jurisdictions (Civil and Common Law).

We are talking about guilt by association here, not (so much) proven DNS abuse. And, when this Policy filters down into the Registrar Agreement, does this material change work retrospectively?

The client paid (consideration) and the Registrar just removes additional 100 names. I am not sure how that would fly in Court.

Eberhart,

How would it be illegal for a registrar to suspend or terminate services when the registrar's terms have been violated if such remedy is described in the terms? This happens every day.

It would probably be plain illegal, at least cuase significant legal exposure.œ
