RE: XYZ.COM LLC application request 2014154

To whom it may concern,

The application by XYZ.com should be rejected at this time. It does not merit a top level web address for the following:

The internet is a space that should encourage access unencumbered by government censorship.
Top level domain names exist that are clearly under the authority or censorship of the Chinese government to even the most casual user.

These top level domain names are sufficient to identify to users that information may be limited or compromised by Chinese government interests.

The XYZ.com domain names in this request are not clearly either a commercial extension, nor a Chinese government related extension.

A web site that is clearly owned by a commercial interest (xxx.audi for example) is clearly biased nor objective.No one expects them to be due to the domain name extension, in spite of the leading name segment (objectivecarsales.audi for example -- purely fictional and no bias against .audi).
Similarly, a web site named with a country or government name (xxx.china, xxx.gov, etc) would be clearly affected by or obviously project policies of a particular government (legal, political, commercial, etc). Again, reasonably obvious to a user.

The current domain name extensions in this request (.college, .rent, theatre, .protection, .security) are too broad in their application to make it clear these are under the approval authority or influence of the Chinese government. The application makes it clear that their will be no review of suitability of the Chinese governments rejection of the registrants web name.
Nor will it be obvious to the user of such domain name extensions when the web page is a censored page or an uncensored (or other government influenced) page. Even more than may already exist in other domains (that are heavily influenced by government authority).
The list of words that cannot be included in a domain name in China is fluid and subject to political whim. Its very nature is disruptive to a wide ranging and stable world internet access and operation.
