Rights protection mechanisms for new internet layer outlined, but could more have been done?
OP3FT, the non-profit organisation whose purpose is to hold, promote and protect the newFrogans layer of the internet, has expanded on the rights protection mechanisms (RPMs) being made available to trademark owners.

Bilan .PARIS, un an après
L'extension de nom de domaine .PARIS a été lancée en juin 2014. Dans un premier temps réservée à une liste très restreinte de professionnels, l'extension .PARIS avait ensuite été ouverte au grand public en décembre 2014. A peine un après son lancement public, quel premier bilan peut-on tirer ?

Réponse du Ministère de l’Economie, de l’industrie et du numérique (JO SENAT, 24/12/2015, p.3594)
À la suite d’un nouveau recours intenté par la Commission européenne et les organisations viti-vinicoles (procédure de l’ICANN dite de « cooperative engagement »), la délégation de ces deux domaines est aujourd’hui suspendue afin de permettre à l’ICANN, à la Commission européenne et aux représentants des viticulteurs européens de discuter une nouvelle fois.
