Re: [ga] So, the way that ICANN handles legal objections to TLDS on its website is to delete them?

[Rubens Kuhl <rubensk@xxxxxx>]

You are entitled to an opinion and to seek legal remedy based on it, the 
problem is you suggested that you filed an objection and it vanished, and it 
turns out you disagree with the objection process requiring paying to the ADR 
and never filed one. 

The problem with alternate TLD alleged rights is that people might pay your 
claims with Monopoly money, as they belong to the same realm…
