I would mind if US would not started seizing .com domains without warning, explanation or at least some remotely just process. Habit of seizing a domain and returning it back after a year with no explanation or at least “sorry” will not get you much trust.

Dot com addresses are regulated by the US Department of Commerce. If you don’t want the United States confiscating your domain name, do not register a domain under a top-level domain controlled by the US government. Simple.
