What the hell is wrong with ICANN?

Oooookay, so, in other words, some anonymous person can just transfer your domain away from you as long as you don't decline it?

I have a hard time believing this... that would be like the FDIC saying, "We'll give your money to whoever requests it as long as you don't deline the transfer request." How ridiculous...

Or am I misunderstanding this? My friends and I are discussing it right now and this didn't sound quite right to me... this creates infinitely more problems than it solves if this is indeed how it works.

If there's someone I really hated or wanted to fuck with, I could just transfer their domain away, and if for some reason they don't get the trasnfer request, it's all mine?

Seems like there's gonna be a LOT of legal issues surrounding this one...
