DNS services helps to translate a domain name like ChotoCheeta.com to its IP address, which takes the user to the desired website and its content. Through out these years, ICANN was the sole body approve domain extension and allow certain registrars to issue the domain names to end users but that is about to chance.
ICANN is about pass a rule via which they would open up this area and would allow end user to chose or create any domain extension of gTLD they wish. Meaning now you can book, domain.anything-you-want.
Some see this as a welcome move to help new business to grow but if thinking deeply in today’s unsafe internet world, this would just open the flood gates for the phishing attacks since there would be virtual unlimited ways to mimic a original domain.
