That would be much less problematic if the domain registration
was handled automatically by the ISP they obtain their
email &c from. Indeed the legislation proposal sounds like
it'd make it ISP's duty to take care of it (in case of email),
just like phone operators take care of phone numbers
(where the problem also exists in principle, but is
very rare in practice).

In case of subdomains under the ISP's (or a common domain
holding organization) the problem would be almost
nonexistent, as far as I can see.
