More information:

.click is a proposed new TLD in ICANN's New gTLD Program.

Current Applicant

  1. Uniregistry, Corp., the company applied for 54 new gTLDs. Uniregistry was founded by the well-known domainer, Frank Schilling.[1]

Previous Applicant

  1. Radix, .click is one of 31 applications submitted by the company.[2]

Radix withdrew its application for .click due to a private auction administered by Applicant Auction that took place in April 2014. It was one of several auctions Radix took part in during that month, and the company is presumed to have received millions of dollars from losing 5 auctions.[3]

Radix

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]
