The objections failed on the grounds that the objectors failed to persuade the panelist that granting Google the .search string would cause material detriment to the "search" community.<ref>[http://domainnamewire.com/2014/02/06/googles-search-top-level-domain-name-application-survives-objections/ Google's .search TLD application Survives Objections, DomainNameWire] Retrieved 06 Feb 2014</ref>
