FTC Investigates VeriSign Domain-Slamming

securitas writes: "Remember all of those recent misleading 'invoices' and other VeriSign tactics that resulted in transfers of domains to VeriSign from competing registrars, domain deletions and other domain-slamming shenanigans? Well the Federal Trade Commission has decided to investigate VeriSign's domain practices. This kind of probe is long overdue."

Verisign

[Oliver Newland]

As evidenced by my stellar SAT score, my knowledge of the business is immaculate. This is a very specific case, and it requires specific attention. In my post-college days, I'm becoming very comfortable financially, and am beginning to meet many lawyers (I call them "free world crusaders"). My free world crusader friends all think that Verisign, whose practices are unethical, should keep doing exactly what they're doing. Exploiting the law is the American spirit.If you stop Verisign, the terrorists have already won.
