.BIZ and INFO's anti-tasting measures okayed


ICANN has just approved modifications requested a few weeks ago by the .BIZ and .INFO registries to limit domain tasting. From now on, no registrar will be able to freely delete more than 10% of the names it registers monthly.

 

In February, Neulevel (.BIZ) and Afilias (.INFO) used ICANN's standard request process to propose changes to their respective registry contracts. Both requests were the same and made with the same intention: curbing domain tasting.

Under the proposal, in any given month no registrar would be able to delete more than 50 names, or 10% of the names it had registered, whichever was the greater. Currently, there is no such limit on refunds of deleted names.

ICANN's swift move

We're naturally talking names deleted within the 5-day "AGP" (Add Grace Period), the length of time granted to registrars to allow them to react against fraudulent transactions. It is the "perversion" of the AGP which has led to tasting.

During its March 27 meeting, held by teleconference, the ICANN Board voted unanimously to accept Neulevel's and Afilias' proposals. An unusually fast reaction from the corporation showing its clear desire to be seen as firmly tackling the domain tasting problem.
