The DotCom Act is starting to get a little more steam behind it, over the past week Grover  G. Norquist, President, Americans for Tax Reform, sent a letter urging support and in that letter picked out .SUCKS.

The ability to establish domain names does indeed come with its own powerand responsibility.
ICANN has the ability to “extract defensive registration payments,” which blackmail businesses and threaten intellectual property.
Senator Rockefeller was correct when he spoke out a gainst the “.SUCKS” extension in a letter he wrote to ICANN

Here is the full bill

Broadcasting Cable reported about the vote on May 8, 2014.

The House Energy & Commerce Committee Thursday approved the compromise Satellite Television Extension and Localism Act (STELA), which now moves to the House floor. It also approved the DOTCOM Act, which requires a GAO study before the U.S. hands off oversight of the ICANN Internet naming organization.

The bipartisan STELA bill renews the compulsory license that allows satellite operators to deliver distant network TV station signals to viewers who can’t get local versions over the air and renews the FCC’s authority to enforce good faith negotiations. But thanks to some successful cable lobbying, the bill also eliminates the set-top integration ban and prevents joint retransmission consent negotiations by TV stations and the prohibition on cable operators dropping TV station programming during sweeps periods.

The bill also includes an amendment that calls for a GAO study of Nielsen DMAs.

STELA has to pass or the compulsory license and good faith provisions sunset, but the bill still has to clear the full House and either be reconciled with a Senate version, yet to be introduced, or supplant it.

Democrats say the DOTCOM bill is unnecessary and will just delay the hand off of largely ceremonial U.S. oversight of the ICANN naming convention process.
