The biggest issue is forcing everyone into a subscription model because the system is so archaic and forces KYC. It’s pretty profitable for the incumbents because you get surveilled by default, and it’s really hard to get out of those subscriptions.
I heard one story that the only way someone could get out of a subscription was to cancel the credit card.
I am always charmed by my DNS provider who charges me, unnanounced about a month before a name expires.
