澳大利亚域名管理机构auDA的董事会已原则上批准推翻长期实行的"紧密实质关联"规则1。根据新规定，企业和机构今后仅能基于其正式名称注册.com.au或.net.au域名，不再允许根据产品、服务或事件进行注册1。业界专家估计，此举可能影响数百万个澳大利亚网站1。
新规的实施成本引发业界争议。前auDA主席Erhan Karabardak批评这一改变"丢弃了婴儿和洗澡水"1，他指出新规将"有效上升注册.com.au或.net.au域名的成本"，企业需额外支付47澳元每年用于注册商业名称1。不过，独立域名顾问Patrick Myles认为受影响的注册人数量"应该相当小"1。auDA表示，规则变更尚未最终确定，同时预计"大多数"现有域名持有人将能满足新要求1。
Australia's domain name authority auDA has approved recommendations that would fundamentally reshape how .com.au and .net.au domains can be registered, potentially affecting millions of websites across the country 1. The proposed change would eliminate the longstanding "close and substantial connection" rule, which has allowed businesses and organizations to register domain names based on their products, services, or events rather than requiring direct alignment with their official company or organization names 1.
Under the new framework, entities would only be permitted to register domain names that correspond directly to their own names, a shift that industry experts estimate could impact "potentially millions" of Australian websites 1. The change remains subject to further finalization by auDA, though the board has approved the recommendations "in principle" 1. The organization has indicated that "most" existing domain holders are expected to satisfy the new requirements 1.
The proposed reform has generated significant debate within the sector. Former auDA chair Erhan Karabardak has opposed the change, arguing it amounts to "throwing out the baby with the bathwater" 1. He contends that the new rules would "effectively increase the cost of registering a .com.au or .net.au domain," requiring businesses to pay an additional $47 annually to register commercial names 1. However, independent domain consultant Patrick Myles has suggested that the number of registrants affected "should be relatively small" 1.
