Linked Pre-Proposal

Name Ban - Establishing guidelines for which a particular NAME would qualify to be banned.

Summary

The proposal to remove 'Name Ban' as one of the Common Actions Categories in DAO Proposals is motivated by the need to ensure alignment with the principles and values outlined in Decentraland's Terms of Use and the ENS DAO Constitution.

Abstract

Previously, there was a discussion within the DAO community about whether guidelines should be established for banning specific names within the ecosystem. However, the feedback from this discussion was clear: banning people's assets, including their names, should not be a practice endorsed by the DAO.

Motivation

The primary problem this proposal addresses is the potential infringement on users' rights and ownership of their digital assets, specifically the ownership of names in the Decentraland ecosystem. The current Decentraland Terms of Use, in section 12.4, emphasizes the importance of respecting ownership and management of LAND, Non-fungible tokens (NFTs), and user-created content. This aligns with the core tenet of the ENS DAO Constitution, which states that "Name ownership shall not be infringed." By removing 'Name Ban' as a Common Actions Category in DAO Proposals, the DAO reaffirms its commitment to respecting users' rights and maintaining a fair and open ecosystem for all participants.

Specification

Remove 'Name Ban' as a Common Action Category in DAO Proposals under:

"Name ownership shall not be infringed."

The Decentraland DAO will not enact any change that infringes on the rights of Decentraland's Name users to retain names they own, or unfairly discriminate against name owners’ ability to transfer, or otherwise use their names.

Conclusion

This proposal seeks to fortify the foundation of Decentraland's principles and values. It acknowledges the importance of respecting user ownership, aligns with established constitutions, and ultimately strives for a more inclusive, fair, and rights-conscious Decentraland ecosystem.
