.sexy is a proposed TLD in ICANN's New gTLD Program. The applicant is Uniregistry.[1]
Objection
Saudi Arabia's Communications and Information Technology Commission (CITC) filed an objection against the TLD.[2]
European Commission Objection
The European Commission objected to the application for .bio outside of ICANN's defined remediation processes.
Just after ICANN's GAC issued its Early Warnings, which are advice given from one GAC member country to an applicant warning it of potential issues within its application, the European Commission issued a letter to all applicants within the new gTLD program. The letter highlights 58 applications that "could raise issues of compatibility with the existing legislation .. and/or with policy positions and objectives of the European Union." It notes a desire to open a dialogue with each offending applicant.
The Commission specifically notes that this objection is not a part of the GAC Early Warning process, and goes on to note that "the Commission does not consider itself legally bound to [ICANN] processes," given that there is not legal agreement between the two bodies.[3][4]
