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.<ref>[https://gacweb.icann.org/download/attachments/22938690/RadixReg-US-31.pdf?version=1&modificationDate=1353452704000 RadixReg.

Donuts replied to France´s warning to .hotel, and its similar objections for [[.health]], [[.sarl]], and [[.vin]], with an impassioned defense of the validity of open registration for New gTLDs. It notes that restricting registration unfairly assumes malfeasance on the part of the registrant, that no such restrictions exist for related domains in any exisiting gTLDs or ccTLDs, and that verification and restriction would inevitably raise the price of registration significantly. They write, "We do not want to disenfranchise all users of a term by limiting its use to the most common category of usage." They go on to quote the GAC's own advice with regards to its contract with [[.xxx]] registry provider, [[ICM Registry]], which notes that at that time the GAC was against any monitoring of TLD content given that it seems to overstep ICANN's technical mandate.<ref>[http://donuts.co/news/files/donuts_reply_to_france_ARCHITECT_HEALTH_HOTEL_SARL_VIN.pdf Donuts reply to France, donuts.co]Published February 5 2013, Retrieved 8 Feb 2013</ref>
