Governance Theater: Why the gTLD Expansion Program Is a Lose-Lose Proposition (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Last week I wrote about what happens when you win an accountability ruling and still walk away empty-handed. The IRP merry-go-round keeps spinning, and the applicant keeps paying to ride it.
