===GAC Early Warnings===
The applications from [[Bridgestone Americas Tire Operations, LLC]] and [[The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company]] were issued [[GAC]] Early Warnings 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.<ref>[http://newgtlds.icann.org/en/applicants/gac-early-warning GAC Early Warning, NewgTLDS.ICANN.org] Retrieved 25 Nov 2012</ref>
The warning states that the applicant is "seeking exclusive access to a common generic string .. that relates to a broad market sector," which Ms. Dryden notes could have unintended consequences and a negative impact on competition.<ref>[https://gacweb.icann.org/download/attachments/22938690/Tires-AU-1217.pdf?version=1&modificationDate=1353450987000 Tires AU, GACweb.ICANN.org] Retrieved 25 Nov 2012</ref>
