国際ドメイン名の話。

Over the years, many changes have been made to the Domain Name System (DNS). Some of these changes were made to allow internationalized domain names (IDNs). The concept behind these is simple to allow language-specific scripts or characters that are not part of the usual Latin alphabet to become part of domain names.
However, the security and cybercrime implications of international domain names have to be considered. We know that criminals jump at every new technological development to make money… and that some open the doors to cybercrime more easily than others.
This is a subject I’ve been thinking about for a while now. There are a number of facets to the IDN discussion and a number of associated risks.
