So, generic TLD are not really international, they are limited to US

corporations?

No, it is the location of the registrar. In Rojadirecta's case seems
it was GoDaddy a U.S. company. Rojadirecta should have transferred
their name away from a US company as soon as they had trouble.

Are you sure? Similar seizures earlier were done from the registry
operator level who runs the generic tld, verisign in that case<br>
<br>
see quote from

<blockquote>Ben Butler, Go Daddy’s director of network abuse, has just
provided me with the following statement, via a spokesperson:
<blockquote>
<p>It appears the domain names were locked directly by
VeriSign. Go Daddy has not received any law enforcement inquiries or
court orders concerning the suspension of the domains in question.</p>
<p>Go Daddy has not been contacted by ICE or DHS on the domain
names in question.</p>

The point is ICANN, tld operators and many top registrars all are
subject to US jurisdiction and will HAVE to to what US Laws seeks of
them.... So the question of an international treaty raised by Stephane.
