Eliminating Registry-Registrar separation within the TLD would:

  • Negate 10 years of successful competition
  • Create unfair pricing
  • Enable unfair access to competitive data

We support a new TLD process

where registrars can own a new TLD registry and/or provide technical back-end registry services, as long as they do not act as a registrar with respect to their own TLD.

About us

This site is organized by three ICANN Authorized Registry Operators: .ORG, the Public Interest Registry, NeuStar (.biz) and Afilias (.info), who are concerned about certain aspects of ICANN’s new gTLD process. Committed to the interests of the global consumer, we are very concerned that ICANN intends to reverse an established, widely accepted, and successful, policy of requiring a vertical separation of registry and registrars of a given TLD. Join us in support of keeping the domain name market competitive, continuing to eliminate conflict of interest, and provide quality services to grow the Domain Name System.
