Property Value
dbo:abstract
  • Universal Acceptance (UA) is a term coined by Ram Mohan in 2001 to represent the principle that every top-level domain (TLD) should function within all applications regardless of script, number of characters, or how new it is. Historically, there were a limited number of TLDs available in strings of two or three Latin-script characters. This began to change in 2000, when ICANN introduced new generic top-level domains (gTLDs) that were longer than three characters, such as .info and .museum, and led to the crafting of Mohan's Three Laws of Universal Acceptance. In 2010, the first internationalised domain names (IDNs), or domain names using non-Latin characters, were introduced. In 2013 ICANN's New gTLD Program introduced over 1,000 new gTLDs. One issue surrounding the expansion of the Domain Name System’s Root Zone has been the ability of Internet-based applications and systems to handle these domain names. For the principle of Universal Acceptance to be realized, all valid domain names and email addresses must be accepted, validated, stored, processed and displayed correctly and consistently by all Internet-enabled applications, devices and systems.
