*[[J-P Voillequé]] and [[Jessica Alice Rivers]] joined ICANNWiki as Content Editors on December 1, 2020.

*[[ICANN]] announced that all 1,195 generic top-level domains ([[gTLD]]s) have deployed Domain Name System Security Extensions ([[DNSSEC]]).

*J-P has been updating the main page, the [[ICANNWiki:Community portal|community portal]], and the [[RSSAC]] article. To the left, you can read an excerpt from that article about the findings from the most recent [[RSSAC#RSSAC review| RSSAC review]].

*Jessica has been working on filling in some of the blanks on ICW by fleshing out articles on some of the newer or lesser-known aspects of ICANN. Check out, for instance, the article on [[ATLAS]].

*The government of Niue launched proceedings with ICANN to reclaim [[.nu]] as its [[ccTLD]].

*If you want to know how you can help, check out [[ICANNWiki:Community portal|Articles Wanted]] and [[Articles needed|Updates Needed]]. If you haven't already, [[ICANNWiki:Community portal#Create Account|creat an account]].

*[[ICANN Board]] withheld consent for a change of control of [[Public Interest Registry]] from [[Internet Society]] to [[Ethos Capital]].

*[[GoDaddy]] Acquired (in chronological order) [[Over]], [[Uniregistry]], [[Neustar]], [[Skyverge|SkyVerge]], and [[Poynt]].

*[[Donuts]] acquired [[Afilias]].

*COVID-19 made working from home the norm, accelerating [[DNS Abuse|cyberattacks]] and the difficulty of managing [[cybersecurity]]. For instance, many employees at [[GoDaddy]], currently the world's largest domain registrar and web-hosting company, recently failed the company's controversial [[phishing]] email test, and [[WIPO]] announced that it had registered its 50,000th [[cybersquatting]] case, contributing to an 11% jump in reported incidents from 2019.
