I have a domain registered under my real name and personal email address. Coming away from the article, my understanding is that my domain is liable to sniping if I step away from the Internet for more than two weeks (e.g., I go on a trek into the jungle somewhere) and don't take steps to have a friend or colleague keep tabs on the issue. This seems like a straightforward and obviously undesirable scenario; I wonder what came up in the ICANN consultation when it was discussed.
