Quite a few TLDs seem to be proposing that there will be variety of standards that their registrants would have to abide by (and qualifications that they will have to meet), so I don't see why this would not be possible. How one might enforce or police it is another question. At the very least, the TLD would have to accept reports of infractions, investigate and take action if needed. Probably not onerous *IF* the incidence rate is low. Alan At 09/09/2013 04:44 PM, Thomas Lowenhaupt wrote:
Everyone/Anyone,
I was thinking about the prospect of a TLD-wide privacy policy. This would involve requiring name purchasers to indicate via a check box that "I agree to abide by the privacy protection policies set by the XYZ TLD. See details here."
My thinking is that there might be some advantage to requiring some transparency in privacy policy. Not necessarily requiring any particular level of transparency, but merely making the type of privacy (if any) obvious to the user.
Is this done anywhere now? Is it practicable for a city-TLD such as .nyc?
Your thoughts appreciated.
