Ali's invitation to post reflections on the past 25 years of ICANN is very welcome. No doubt, some will write about major shifts in how ICANN is governed, for example, the end of United States government oversight. While others will write about changes to the industry that ICANN has catalyzed, for example, the 2012 round of new gTLDs and the upcoming next application process.

Marketers frantic to preserve their ad tracking capabilities in advance of Apple s iOS 14.5 privacy restrictions have overwhelmed a volunteer-maintained database used to oversee domain names and improve web security.
The Public Suffix List (PSL) is a Mozilla-founded, community-run project to provide a list of domain suffixes, from .com and .co.uk to things like github.io and pvt.k12.ma.us, that can be used to build effective top-level domains (eTLDs) that form the basis of the web s same-origin security model.
eLTDs exist as a designation because top-level domains (TLDs) themselves aren t sufficient to define the scope of a site.
