Unified Domain Blocking Service Protecting Brands Online | GlobalBlock
Tony Kirsch
The Brand Safety Alliance team is once again pleased to be attending APTLD’s next members meeting, to be held in Hong Kong this February.
These events are a unique and valuable opportunity to connect with ccTLD Registries and share in the latest knowledge, news and best practice.
The Brand Safety Alliance will travel to Hong Kong for the forum and look forward to meeting with existing GlobalBlock partners and other ccTLD Registries that may be interested to learn how domain blocking has provided significant financial and operational benefits for registries since launching in March last year.
Guam’s .gu is the latest ccTLD to join the GlobalBlock service, joining dozens of other geographic identifier namespaces that are recognizing the value of proactively preventing trademark abuse and boosting the integrity of their namespaces.
The Brand Safety Alliance is proud to be the Gold Sponsor for APTLD87 and will also present a fireside chat at 12pm on Tuesday 11 February. In this session, Tony Kirsch will interview leaders from the ccTLD community who have joined GlobalBlock, to discuss how it has benefited their Registries and the broader communities they serve.
If you’re attending the meeting and would like to meet with our team, please contact us today via email to hello@brandsafetyalliance.co.

APTLD90 brought the Asia Pacific domain name community to Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia last month, with ccTLD registries, technical operators, policy specialists and other members of the regional internet community coming together to discuss the challenges shaping the future of the domain name system.

When the domain name industry meets in Bali this October, it will mark a time of significant change and opportunity for the ICANN community. Following the application period for the second round of new gTLDs, ICANN will publish its full list of prospective TLDs and their applicants, likely just prior to its Annual General Meeting from October 17-22.

When the BSA team attended INTA’s TMAP meeting in Berlin last year, much of the conversation around new TLDs and AI-driven domain abuse was anticipatory. The threat was real, but for many trademark professionals, it still felt like something on the horizon.

From the early days of the Brand Safety Alliance, response to our mission from registries, registrars and brands in the Asia Pacific region has been strong. Many registries have chosen to participate in GlobalBlock and are recognizing the benefits of stronger brand and IP defenses in improving registry health and protecting internet users by proactively stopping abuse before it occurs. In the coming months, our commitment to this community ramps up through several events in partnership with the Asia Pacific Top-Level Domain Association (APTLD). The BSA’s Leona Chen-Birkner will present a webinar to APTLD members, before giving a presentation at the upcoming APTLD90 meeting in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia in September.
