That implies central authority of some sort that has control over this network.<br/><br/>Domain squatting has a time honored and long tradition anyway and isn't going to change with how we are going to be running this system. By setting up a system to "delist" a domain name, it also sets up the person or group of people with presumably some private key which can in turn authorize the removal of domains as a target for receiving judicial injunctions and potentially other sorts of legal problems. If instead you can demonstrate that it is cryptographically impossible to change the domain registration information, all you can do is throw your handseddrli up and say "I can't change that, sorry".<br/><br/>The owner of the IP address referenced by the domain registration should be the target of attack, not the domain registration system.<br/></div><br/>You have forgotten the rule that I asserted earlier in the thread:<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader">Quote</div><div class="quote">When in doubt, remove human elements. Adopt certainty of computer software code over uncertainty of judges. Complicated rules invite gaming and abuse.</div><br/>Nowhere did I suggest that we should give authority to whoever, or shutting down the DNS system in favor of court/judges/messyhumanjudgement.</div> text/html
