The problem is, we don't find such benefits. --; possible government control over .de; whether or not .de will adopt the UDRP -- There's neither a reason, nor demand for doing this. --; international uniform WHOIS policies -- A globally uniform policy would fail due to divergent privacy laws. --; and a host of other topics.
