Furthermore, "government control is a simplistic overstatement". For one, some government is in control of the TLD to begin with. They can yank your domain or serve it with arbitrary content, regardless of whether your certificate is validated by CA/PKIX or DNSSEC/DANE.
As a recent incident, I should point to the practice happened in December 2014 in Republic of Belarus where both independent media sites and commercial media outlets were wiped from the national TLD following attempts by the national bank to keep up with inflation. onliner.by was completely removed from the TLD by claims of Ministry of Economics and it took them 18 days to get back to business by changing their own ebay-like catalogue. naviny.by (news site) was removed from the TLD too, though for lesser time, for its independent reporting. Essentially, this is already a reality around the world. -- / Alexander Bokovoy -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
