==Disputes: How to Stay Out of Court ...==
An OpenNIC domain is not property, it is your address. This is the guiding principle for dispute resolution with OpenDNS.
Some TLDs will be commercial spaces, so various countries' Trademark laws will apply to them. If a court of legitimate jusisdiction rules that a registration in a commercial TLD violates a Trademark, OpenNIC will revoke that registration as a courtesy to that country. Some TLDs will be established for purposes, such as parody, which are inconsistant with corporate or commercial activity, or will explicitly forbid corporations from holding subdomains. These spaces will, by definition, not be possible to mistake for a Trademark holder's own site and therefore no country's Trademark law will be considered to apply to domains within them.
In all cases, by registering with the OpenNIC, registrants will agree to accept the vote of the OpenDNS users' community as binding resolution of the dispute.
