VeriSign Shutting Down Site Finder

Posted by timothy on from the but-guys-what's-the-big-deal dept.

00420 writes "VeriSign, the administrator of the .com and .net domains, made plans to shut down its new Site Finder service Friday, after the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers ordered the company to undo controversial changes. Of course they're not taking it down because it affected the internet, they're just doing it to keep good relations with the technical community. (Seems a little late for that doesn't it?)" The shutdown is not complete yet, though: VeriSign hasn't changed their wildcard DNS entry (64.94.110.11).

    Mr. Sheridan,

    Fuck you. We didn't want it. We're happy that ICANN handed you your ass.

    Have a nice day.
