[governance] A ccTLD with very questionable registration policies

[Stephane Bortzmeyer]

Many ccTLD allow only registration by people or organisations located
in the country (or having a link with the country).

But this one is more original: it *forbids* registration from one
country:

http://nic.ae/english/pdf/Registration_Policies_and_Rules.pdf

> 2. Any Israeli individual or entity shall not be eligible for the
> registration of domain name(s) under .ae. The UAEnic shall have the
> right to remove any domain name which the Israeli Boycott Office
> Rules and Regulations in the UAE decide that it is similar or
> identical to an Israeli's, or any Intellectual Property Right
> belonging to person(s) under an interdict by virtue of a decision to
> that effect.
