domains ICANN : Chinese government gears up for tight domain industry regulation

[News]

The Chinese government is currently working on a tight regulatory process that will evaluate all domain Registries and Registrars.

According to a report issued by the Hong Kong based agency BrandMa, the reach of the Chinese government will extend beyond the local ccTLD dot .CN.

In other words, the communist government of China will be in full control and regulate the type of TLDs, gTLDs and ultimately, domain names that will be registrable, by imposing strict rules upon domain Registries and Registrars.
