ICANN's proposal to go ahead with another round of gTLDs is a complete money grab, and another giant fraud, spam and scam turd for Internet users in general. I'm talking about tlds like .top, .work, .shop, .vip, etc.
New domains used for phishing, spam and scams account for an overwhelming share of customers of these new gTLDs, which often have rock-bottom prices -- especially for bulk registrations. Overall, new gTLDs tend to be a race to the bottom where the only way they can make a profit is to sell domains en masse, and the market for such demand skews massively towards scammers.
ICANN's proposal to ignore history and introduce another round of new gTLDs should be squashed by regulators. But it won't. Like the AI crap being crammed into everything these days whether you like it or not, ICANN is going to keep creating new gTLDs because it's been a huge cash cow for them.
