The IO was only allowed to object to TLD applications on grounds of Limited Public Interest or Community related grounds. In the case of '''Limited Public Interest''', "the applied-for gTLD string must be contrary to generally accepted legal norms of morality and public order that are recognized under fundamental principles of international law. The expert panel appointed by the ICC will base its decision on the existence of such a contradiction." The applied for string must threaten an incitement to violence of lawless action, discrimination, child pornography, or "be contrary to specific principles of international law as reflected in relevant international instruments of law."<ref>[http://www.independent-objector-newgtlds.org/english-version/limited-public-interests-objections/ Limited Public Interest, Independent Objector NewgTLDs.org] Retrieved 14 Mar 2013</ref>

For the IO to object to on '''Community''' grounds the TLD must face opposition or be contrary to a significant portion of a community which it purportedly aims to serve. The IO must determine: That the community is a clearly delineated community; that there is a strong association between the community and the string applied for; there is a strong association between the segment of the community on whose half we objects and the string itself; and he must determine that the TLD would produce a significant material detriment to this sizable portion of the community.<ref>[http://www.independent-objector-newgtlds.org/english-version/community-objections/ Community Objections, Independent Objector New gTlds.org] Retrieved 14 Mar 2013</ref>
