ICANN has announced a program where companies can apply for their own TLD.

- 4. Objection and Dispute Resolution
Note: The objection process is intended to afford businesses, individuals, governmental entities and communities an opportunity to advance arguments against introducing certain new gTLDs into the domain name system.
Parties with standing may file formal objections on the grounds of string confusion, legal rights, limited public interest or community opposition.
