+1.

I don’t think IETF should be chasing around widely used TLDs and trying to block them, it will be a never ending chase.

We are trying to mitigate against unknowns and perhaps the best solution is to have the TOR folks apply for .ONION on the next round of TLD application and get a fully qualified delegation.

Basically saying: If you need a globally unique identifier in the DNS, you must register it with the competent entity. If noy, you run the risk of having your users leak their queries and possibly connect to the wrong service. This should make a better proposal for standard, basically reinforcing the one DNS one Internet message, and not the “Make sure you are leaking enough queries so that the IETF can then reserve the name for you”.

Who are we trying to protect with this remedy? TOR users? have they shown any interest in being protected?

What if I copied the onion draft, changed all of the uses of onion to

I expect to have carrot admitted too?


Do you have running code for carrot?



The ToR source code, with all occurrences of onion replaced by carrot.
