Only in a very limited sense. DMARC currently stops at the organizational
domain. This sets up processing and structure for the limited cases where
DMARC 'above' the organizational domain makes sense.
To pick one notional example (real domains, but not reflective of any knowledge
of domain owner plans or policies):
Why shouldn't Google be able to assert DMARC policy over subdomains of .google
the same way it does over .google.com? Currently they can't and this draft
provides policy and mechanism for them to do so if they want.
Does that clarify it for you?
