"Indian courts and cybersquatting victims are frustrated that registrars are not responding to their take-down notices. Some registrars are seemingly asking that plaintiffs get a U.S. court order rather than one from India."

Should registrars really respond to court orders from every country? Can you imagine the nightmare that would cause. How would they determine if the order is authentic, wasn't the result of bribery, etc.? Imagine what would come out of the Russian courts on Putin's orders alone..

(Little bit of a sore subject with me. I had a domain locked for 6 months because someone sent a forged police order claiming a domain was stolen. It was from another country. It took my registrar 6 months to finally release the domain.)
