Oh for sure!!! So easy to be flippant with other peoples customers...
The cause of our domain name to be removed from the .com zone is bad enougth. But for Verisign registry to hijack our traffic and then bounce all customer emails until they got us back in the DNS is quite another.
I think the issue of your name being removed from the zone file is the crux of what Should Never Be Allowed To Happen. Even if you wanted to remove your own name from the zone, it should not be so easy. The Verisign clever marketing stuff wouldn't have any affect the zone file was correct.
The time has come for the "techies" to stand up and take these marketing bastards to task.
If someone of a technical nature wanted to draft up something more useful than a moan at ICANN / Verisign, I'd be happy to mobilise InternetNZ to take the issue further. Keith Davidson
