I think that any other Registrar that is licensed to sell com and net
domains has a unfair trade claim against Verisign. It would not be the
first time they get slapped for doing something stupid.
I also would not be surprised to see a backlash against Verisign and
Verisign products. I'm waiting to see the first Boycott Verisign web
page.
I must admit though that I am certainly biased here... I've not liked
Verisign and NetworkSolutions for some time now.
