[ga] Is ICANN planning on respecting copyright laws in the new TLD program?

["John Palmer" <jpalmer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

There are many TLD holders out there in the Inclusive Namespace. TLDs are 
considered b DMCA and
recent court cases to be copyrighted directory properties.

Will ICANN respect federal law or attempt to commit larceny by conversion by 
stealing copyrighted TLD
directory properties and re-selling them to others.

ADNS, my company is preparing for litigation if they touch any of our 
properties. The following TLDS belong
to ADNS and we will defend our copyrights in court if ICANN attempts to steal 
any of them:

.AMERICA
.USA
.Z
.LION
.TIGER
.LEOPARD
.CHEETAH
.PUMA
.LYNX
.BOBCAT

Any party that applies for these TLDs from ICANN may also be subject to legal 
action as well as ADNS defends its property
rights. We created and have operated these TLDs for many years, some of them since 1995 and are actually listed in the book "Ruling 
the Roots" by Milton Mueller
I suspect that many other TLD holders will also turn to the courts to defend 
their rights as well.

I haven't seen any discussion regarding this matter
