Objection To .Earth: We Already Own It & ICANN Awarding It To Any Applicant “Would be Larceny”
2012 August 16 by Michael H. Berkens

An interesting objection was just filed with ICANN on the new gTLD .Earth, by John Palmer of American Webmasters, Inc who claims to already own the TLD since 1995 having been granted the TLD by none other than Dr. Jon Postel.

“The TLD “.EARTH” is an existing TLD which is the property of American Webmasters, Inc / dba AGN Domain Name Service, Inc, a Delaware Corporation.”

"Any attempt to assign this TLD to someone else constitutes larceny by conversion and will be met with litigation and or criminal prosecution of all parties involved, including ICANN and the applicant.”
