I think ICANN's policy change was more directed at places like TotalNIC, which was holding numerous domains hostage because you couldn't unlock them (unless you sent off a form, signed in triplicate, signed by a notary, that waived all your rights, and begged them to screw you in the ass while it was at it)

I'm pleased to say that a few weeks ago TotalNIC gave their domain database to a mob called PacNames, who - if nothing else - offer renewals at $9. I'd say this has happened because of the new ICANN ruling.

Of course, it does leave an opening for unscrupulous operators...
