Generic top-level domainsIDNDNSSEC
Overview
.camera is an active generic top-level domain (gTLD) introduced through ICANN's New gTLD Program. The string was proposed as an open gTLD intended to provide additional expression on the Internet. The registry/manager associated with the string is Donuts (Atomic Maple, LLC); the icannwiki entry also lists Demand Media in the registry field.
History
- Proposed and applied for as part of ICANN's New gTLD Program.
- The Donuts entity (Atomic Maple, LLC) was the sole applicant for the .camera string.
- A Registry Agreement with ICANN was signed on 27 August 2013 after passing Initial Evaluation.
- .camera was delegated to the DNS root zone on 6 November 2013.
- On the same day Donuts had nine strings delegated to the root, including .ventures, .clothing, .lighting, .singles, .voyage, .guru, .holdings and .equipment.
Registration Rules
- The .camera application described the TLD as an open TLD without pre-registration policies.
- The registry stated it would not use pre-registration verification, reasoning that such verification could deny domain access to legitimate registrants.
- Donuts indicated plans to adhere to all ICANN registration policy requirements and to define remediation and takedown policies to meet those requirements.
- The registry planned to control abuse through "extensive user and rights protections."
- Sunrise period: 3 December 2013 to 31 January 2014.
