Although the email suggests that the settlement is only excluded in certain countries, the claim form appears to be US-centric -- it rejected my attempt to put a Canadian province and postal code in place of a state and zip code.
Or, if you're using a recent version of BIND 9, you can set the.com/.net zones to "delegation-only" (which is a bit more elegant than the BIND 8 patch that has the SiteFinder IP hardcoded):
zone "com" {
type delegation-only;
};
zone "net" {
type delegation-only;
};
This is also useful for other wildcarded TLDs like.ws and.cc.
