My point is that they (at least ccTLD registry operators) should not be allowed to have arbitrary ToS. As long as it is legal and the customer can pay non-discriminatory prices they should not have any leverage to remove them.

Just like you can't get kicked from your internet service, electricity or water providers for arbitrary reasons.

Given that the net neutrality regulations which were adopted to actually explicit protect all lawful content and applications are unlikely to ever go into effect given the new FCC makeup, this is not true. Nothing stops ISPs today from having restrictive, content-based TOS restricting lawful activity.

That being said, I can appreciate the argument that DNS service should be covered in an even more expansive net neutrality framework than the one we almost had in the US.

Yes, I was assuming net neutrality. Without it the whole discussion is moot since your traffic could just get tossed out at any time by any provider along the route.
