Re:Focus on country code. (Score 1)

I support this idea. Having only ccTLD would give visitors a certain amount of legal security.

At the moment, if amazon.ca doesn't play nice (in regards to taxes, refund policies, bootleg, etc.) against Canadian laws, the local authorities can step in. If this principle were extended and non-cc TLDs are discontinued, citizens would know when they are visiting (relatively) safe sites and to be careful when venturing onto sites that aren't controlled by their country. Can the average visitor tell that tvdvdstore.net operates out of China and ships bootleg?

For multinational companies, acquiring a domain name in another country is probably one of the easiest things they need to do before entering the country's market.

Eliminating non-ccTLDs would also eliminate many other problems such as trademarks. You want to buy walmart.ca? Do you own the trademark in Canada, since it is already registered?
