I assume you mean “registry” NOT “registrar”?

Besides the standard complaint replies, I've actually received today a
reply on my rationale regarding this matter: It seems ICANNs position is
that the registrars operation procedure is legit and backed by the
registry agreements:

-- snip --
Registry operators may establish additional policies or procedures for a
generic top-level domain (gTLD) and  request that users provide
additional credentialing information to grant access to its zone files
without limitation (see Specification 4, Section 2.1.2 of the Registry
Agreement (RA).
-- snip --

This means (as I understand this) it's essentially up to the registrar
if access is granted or not.

Best regards, Adrian
