ICANN has told a US Federal Court in District of Court, that a ccTLD cannot be considered as a 'property' and hence, it cannot be attached by plaintiffs in a lawsuits, who are trying to obtain the assets of the countries that they argued, have supported terrorism.
ICANN argued that if ccTLDs were property, they would not be 'in the US' and therefore subject to attachment but rather the ccTLDs are located where the servers that contain the domain are located. In this case, they are located in Syria, Iran and North Korea, Paul Rosenzweig wrote on the Lawfare blog.
