> The *Domain Name System (DNS)* is a critical component of the internet’s
> infrastructure, enabling users to access websites through human-readable
> domain names. However, the DNS is increasingly exploited for malicious
> activities such as phishing, malware distribution, botnets, and
> spam—collectively referred to as *DNS Abuse*.
>
> Within the multistakeholder model of the Internet Corporation for Assigned
> Names and Numbers (ICANN), addressing DNS Abuse has become a priority.
>
> As global concern over cybersecurity grows, there is increasing pressure
> on ICANN and contracted parties (registries and registrars) to take
> stronger action against DNS Abuse. However, debates persist about:
>
>    - The scope of ICANN’s remit
>    - The definition and categories of DNS Abuse
>    - Risks of overreach into content regulation
>    - Impacts on non-commercial users and digital rights
>
> Non-commercial stakeholders—including civil society, academia, and
> end-user advocates—play a key role in ensuring that DNS Abuse mitigation
> efforts respect human rights, freedom of expression, and privacy.
