[[https://apo.org.au/sites/default/files/resource-files/2018-04/apo-nid142116.pdf Criminologists] feel the capacity to regulate DNS abuse is very limited because:
+
# no single global entity is responsible for the regulation of all its aspects;
+
# the multistakeholder model of governance and the distributed administration model;
+
# much of what happens on the Internet is beyond the jurisdictional reach of the criminal law of individual nations; and
+
# regulation will continue to be reserved for the most egregious infringements.
+
Regulation will remain limited until a uniform set of policies to prevent abuse before it happens is enacted.<ref>[https://apo.org.au/sites/default/files/resource-files/2018-04/apo-nid142116.pdf Criminal misuse of the Domain Name System, Australian Institute of Criminology, 2018, pg 13]</ref>
