    .info domain name laundering scheme uncovered

    As described in <a href="http://forum.icann.org/cgi-bin/rpgmessage.cgi?newtldevaluationprocess;3E64FBF6000 015A0">this</a> post on the ICANN public comments forum, several high profile previously locked domains, including travel.info have been tranfered to onvolite inc. Their previous trademark details have been removed.



    [side note: After I contacted Vint Cerf to comlain about this he revoked my posting privleges from the ICANN Public comments forums located at forum.icann.org]

    I noticed that, Cation. Just move on.

    When you play with the big boys, they string you up on your toes with barb wire.

    I think everyone knows that the .info rollout was one big stinking fish fiasco. Look at media.info, still strung to dry in the sun like a useless namespace (what a waste) with Yesnic being locked for over a year because of this, and continues to be locked.

    Thankfully, .biz (Neulevel/Neustar) is a lot more ethical and fair.

    No wonder ICANN was in deep shit with the DOC.

    If you think you are playing a level field in the domain industry, think again.

    Moral of the story: .BIZ rocks!
