I disagree totally about requirements to own a domain. That is absurd. Your "minimum standards" turn this from a People's Medium into a commercial exercise. Why not allow only a dozen media companies to own them? After all, it works to your satisfaction, I'm sure, for radio and television -- if standards were relaxed there, other voices might be heard that might not have millions, and we can't have that...

There should be a set of acceptable standards that one
needs to demonstrate.


To whom?

The idea of minimum standards for domain ownership, at a minimum, is ridiculous -- why not have minimum standards for naming one's children, and if one can't pay $1000 they can just use a number?

Much more than you illustrate below.

Because I disagree with you?
