your remarks don't really make much sense: you 'oppose any attempt to retroactively impose any sort of registration restrictions on .com, .net, or .org,' and yet -- ignoring years of actual usage, in which .com was NOT treated as an imprimatur of commercial activity -- say that '.com should have policies appropriate for commercial use.' i agree that it makes sense to 'tailor policies for the different TLDs to the type of users for which they are intended' *if* that encompasses effectively unregulated TLDs. personally, i'd like to see a .non where IPR are presumed NOT to apply. but of course the IPR zealots can't tolerate exceptionalism except insofar as it benefits them.
cheers,

I would prefer two new unrestricted and unsponsored 'generic' TLDs, but that won't happen until the Department of Commerce makes major reforms to ICANN. The two gTLDs are .web and .blog. .web because it will ease the clogging in .com and .info, but also, trademarks would not apply. However, malicious domain name hijacking and domain name cyber-squatting would not be permitted. Spamming, of course, would be prohibited. .blog would be another trademark-free zone. :)
Best,
