    How UK Drop Catching Compares to Germany and the Netherlands: A Policy Analysis.

    We've published a detailed investigation comparing how expired domains are handled across the UK, Germany, and the Netherlands. Key findings: - Germany gives owners 30 days exclusive recovery rights. UK gives zero. - Netherlands uses randomised release times. Nominet publishes exact drop times. - Nominet charges up to £6,000/year for premium EPP access. Full article: https://nominetaudit.com/content/how...olicy-analysis. We'd welcome views from registrars, drop-catchers, and anyone affected by the current system. Is the UK approach fair? Should Nominet adopt European-style protections, or should drop-catching be banned totally in the UK?
