Verisign .com Domain Name Registry Consumer Class Action

The real class action is the issue of a fascist government declaring antifascism terrorism, making all bank transfers void, seizing their domain (.org). They could do the same to ICC and ICJ, or anyone they dislike really. Most root-servers are located in America, too.

That some company is behind .com or some TLD and earning some money with that is a nothingburger.

Operators for gTLDs specifically .com .org .net serve large bases and operate under extensive contractual obligations, which can constrain arbitrary targeted enforcement. Than, some ccTLDs that have weaker mechanisms for appeal, leaving registrars and registrants exposed to discretionary decisions by the ccTLD operator or relevant national authorities

Cool words which apply if you are in USA. If you are not in USA, the Trump administration demonstrated you are better off with a domain of your country (usually a ccTLD).
