Another Domain Registrar Screws Up
from the can't-get-it-right dept
Well, it seems that the new domain registration system has its glitches. The latest is that one of the new registrars apparently sold some domains to customers and then rereleased them for sale again. So, there are multiple owners of the same domain, and no one's sure how it will work out. If you're into conspiracy theories, you could try to blame Network Solutions for setting up a system that they know will fail, so that people only trust buying domains directly through them.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
