---- ICANN new transfer policies take effect Nov. 12

Are the new rules 'set in stone' or can anything be done to stop ICANN doing this?

PROBLEM (dangerous loop hole)
1.) The current Registrar does not lock names.

2.) A bad registrar CHOOSES not to send an authorization email to the email address of the administrative contact (or makes it too complicated to follow).

3.) Failure of the current Registrar to respond within 5 days will result in 'approval' of the transfer."

I have 2 emails this morning from a registrar. On my email I don't see how to decline the request. The only option they give is to click the link. If the link when clicked offers a 'decline option' I would do it. However, I am worried that the link will be an automatic approval - so I dare not click it.
