One of the significant policies implemented by Google in 2008 is the introduction of ~~'''~~domain kiting detection system~~'''~~ to stop the domain name registration abuses by profiteers known as [[domain tasting]] and [[domain kiting]].The modus operandi of profiteers is taking advantage of the five-day '''Add Grace Period (AGP)''' for domain tasting by checking and calculating how much a particular domain generates revenue from ads while parked at a monetization page. On the other hand, in domain kiting a registrant deletes a newly registered domain name before the grace period end and immediately register it to reset the grace period to postpone the registration payment.<ref>[http://www.informationweek.com/news/205918984 informationweek.com]</ref>

Google's announcement stirred concerns and debate within the internet community prompting ICANN to immediately act although the organization had been preparing a policy to deter the practices of domain tasting and domain kiting prior to Google's move . ICANN conducted a debate in spring of 2008 regarding the elimination of the AGP. Meanwhile, ICANN's At-Large Advisory Committee ([[ALAC]]) requested the board to investigate the practices to formulate a relevant policy to prevent the abusive practices of domain tasters and kiters.<ref>[http://www.betanews.com/article/ICANN-may-end-grace-periods-killing-off-domain-tasting/1201728860 betanews.com]</ref>
