Okay, first off, that TOS is about ICANN's websites, in the update called their "platform". It has nothing to do with domains and ICANN is not the registry. I'm not even sure who the "they" you're talking about is. Were you trying to say that somehow changed something relevant to Gandi as opposed to every other registrar?

It was absolutely true for Gandi, just like for everyone else. Domains have always been cancellable for various reasons.

Yes, many registrars are now acting as registries or have in the past (or been part of other companies who were involved in the operation). That changes nothing of what I said.

Even those big guys with their own registrar, are still subject to the whims of the registries (for other TLDs).
