===.JOBS Charter Compliance Coalition Criticism===

One day before the implementation of the new gTLD program, the .JOBS Charter Compliance Coalition led by its chairman John Bell sent a letter to ICANN detailing the internet governing body's failure to evaluate and investigate all comments and information submitted by entities against the request of the [[.jobs]] registry operator to change its charter. Bell also pointed out that ICANN failed to acknowledge its mistake and overturn its decision when complainants filed for reconsideration and submitted significant evidences to prove that Employ Media violated its charter. The coalition chairman also cited that ICANN was inefficient in dealing with the arbitration proceedings to immediately resolve the Employ Media's charter violation, therefore the company continues to exploit the .jobs TLD and expand the universe.jobs website. Furthermore, Bell said that the internet community is concerned that ICANN's new gTLD program's multiple stakeholder protection mechanisms might end up mismanaged just like the .jobs TLD and ICANN's promises as "empty words." Moreover, Bell requested the ICANN Board to publicly disqualify Employ Media and its partner, the Direct Employers Association from the [[New gTLD Program|new gTLD expansion program]] because registry operator has a "history of abuse." According to Bell, this is the only way for ICANN to regain a measure of regulatory authority.<ref>
