13 resdb is a decentralised resource database, with simple forks and merges. Claiming resources is free and simple, and market forces decide who will accept your claims and who will ignore them. Domain parking farms are irrelevant in resdb, because most users are happy to accept patches that eliminate them. If the US government tries to claim several /8s (16 million addresses each), a patch to eliminate them will be popular.
