Jeff Bullock, the Secretary of State for Delaware, has raised concerns about new gTLD applications for [[.inc]], .corp, and [[.ltd]]. He believed that the applications do not adequately safeguard consumers, businesses, the public at large, state regulators, or the internet itself from the gTLDs being potentially used for fraudulent or misleading purposes.<ref>[http://domainincite.com/10553-delaware-secretary-of-state-opposes-any-corporate-themed-new-gtlds Delaware secretary of state opposes any corporate-themed new gTLDs].

====Technical Concerns Impede Delegation==
[[ICANN]] hired firm [[Interisle Consulting]] to carry out an independent investigation on the issues that may arise from new gTLDs that are identical to TLDs being used on internal networks. The firm reported at [[ICANN 47]] that .home and .corp gTLDs were cause for serious concern since those strings are widely in use by internal naming systems. In response to the report, [[ICANN]] labeled the .home and .corp strings as "high risk" and proposed that neither of the strings be delegated until it could be proven that risk is low.<ref>[http://domainincite.com/13994-new-gtlds-are-the-new-y2k-corp-and-home-are-doomed-and-everything-else-is-delayed New gTLDs are the New Y2K, Domain Incite] Retrieved 12 Sept 2013</ref>
