Verisign Gets Out of the Registrar Biz, Keeps .com Registry

Perhaps Sitefinder was an attempt at maximizing shareholder value for the sale."

    Is the Canopy group the ugly face of some kind of parasite which feeds on the Internet and technology? Everything they touch smells like death and decay.

    I wish Trolltech would throw them off so I can believe there's not some kind of sinister connection beneath the surface.
