They would clean up, and would also cut out the thieving ICANN. Then they should start a domain registry called .googdom and put ICANN out of business ... and a good thing too. Otherwise we will all die a slow internet death under ICANN 's proposed new domain renewal gouging system. They plan 'DIFFERENT PRICING' Sound innocent? Nope. This is a dangerous new communist style form of 'tax on success' where successful domains can be charged a huge amount for renewal just because they are successful. Holy cow! This will prevent all of us online entrepreneurs from growing. It is the same effect as if the Trademarks office (USPTO) suddenly decided to start charging the CocaCola company $100 million each year to maintain the registration of their famous brand name - but only charged me $10 each year for my unknown one. Total gouging madness. There. I spat the dummie. Like Godzilla, ICANN is coming. Better watch out. Jonathan PS.
