Injured victims of a Hamas-planned suicide bombing in Jerusalem were awarded hundreds of millions of dollars in compensation from Iran in a 2014 US court action because of the Iranian government’s support of Hamas. As part of a decade-long effort to collect damages, the plaintiffs asked the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) to seize the country-code top-level domains (ccTLDs) of Iran, as well as North Korea and Syria, and turn them over to the plaintiffs. For a variety of technical, political, and legal reasons, ICANN pushed back against “seizing” ccTLDs and handing them over as compensation in a civil lawsuit (ICANN, 2014).
