"VeriSign Inc is still sending allegedly "deceptive" direct mail to customers of rival domain name registrars, despite being enjoined from doing so with one competitor, a "domain slamming" lawsuit filed this week by Go Daddy Software Inc claims, Kevin Murphy writes."

""I can tell you that we have been in full compliance with court orders. Beyond that, we do not comment on ongoing litigation," said a VeriSign spokesperson.

Christine Jones, Go Daddy's general counsel, said VeriSign interpreted the preliminary injunction order to narrowly apply just to the customers of BulkRegister. VeriSign, she said, has continued to use the controversial mailings to solicit business from customers of other registrars, including Go Daddy. "

The wording of the original injunction was very narrow - only protecting BulkRegister's customers from Verisign. It was actually very disappointing. The language specifically read, ...the judge said VeriSign or other third-party entities must immediately discontinue deceptive transfer, renewal or expiration notices to BulkRegister's customers, which left the door open for Verisgn to continue it's practices toward other registrars customers - which it did.
