.loans is a proposed new TLD in ICANN's new gTLD Program.
Current Applicants[edit | edit source]
- Radix, .loans is one of 31 applications submitted by the company.[1]
- Donuts (June Woods, LLC), the company has applied for 307 TLDs
There is also an applicant for the singular version, .loan, Famous Four Media (dot Loan Limited)
Donuts[edit | edit source]
The application was issued a GAC Early Warning from the representative of Australia and GAC Chair, Heather Dryden. The warning system is noted as a strong recommendation on behalf of national governments to the ICANN Board that a given TLD application should be denied as it stands. Applicants are encouraged to work with objecting GAC members.[2] The warning states that the TLD refers to a regulated market but that the applicant has not provided for adequate measures to protect from consumer harm.[3] Retrieved 25 Nov 2012</ref>
Radix[edit | edit source]
Radix received a GAC Early Warning as an entire applicant, where each one of the applicants was flagged by the U.S. Government. This seems to be the only time a portfolio applicant had all of their applications warned. The issue does not deal with the technical capabilities or thematic content of their applications, but rather the inclusion of an email address associated with the US' Federal Bureau of Investigation. It seems that Radix included correspondence with this address as a recommendation with each of their applications.[4]
