Amazon Registry Services is still holding a ton of TLDs hostage: https://ntldstats.com/registry/group/Amazon-Registry-Service...

It's not even a rounding error on their income statement so they don't care. ICANN, in their infinite wisdom, somehow couldn't foresee corporations squatting on TLDs.



ICANN has staunchly refused to even think about combatting squatting.

Have you ever participated in ICANN? My company did. ICANN's mailing-list traffic was pathetic; never accomplishing anything, as members endlessly bickered about procedure. I don't recall that we ever made a single decision on anything.
