Domini .eco

Al Gore sosterrà la campagna per la creazione di domini “.eco”. Questi verrano utilizzati da organizzazioni o privati che si dedicano alla conservazione e alla difesa dell’ambiente. Però non tutti sono favorevoli all’iniziativa:

People like .COM domains, or alternatively country level domains. These other ones are little more than traps to force brands to protect their trademarks during expensive pre-sale periods. The company behind the domain gets the most of the money, and ICANN, the quasi-governmental, quasi-mafia organization that oversees this mess gets their cut as well. The more domain names that get registered, the more money ICANN makes, which lets them hire more staff to stick their noses into more things. Meanwhile, they’re making a mess of the Internet.
