VeriSign, the company that manages both .com and .net domain name registration, said Thursday that the registry fees for domain names will increase starting Oct. 15. The registry fee for domain names -- effectively the wholesale price -- will rise from $6 to $6.42 for .com names and from $3.50 to $3.85 for .net names. This represents the first registry fee increase since ICANN established the fee structure in 1999. http://informationweek.com/story/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=198800874 VeriSign to increase .com, .net domain fees VeriSign is planning to raise the wholesale cost of registering a .com or .net domain name in October to generate more money for infrastructure improvements, the company announced on Thursday. http://infoworld.com/article/07/04/05/HNverisigntoincreasefees_1.html Verisign hikes fees for web domains (AP) Verisign said Thursday it will increase the fees for registering domain names. Effective Oct. 15, the registry fee, the fee for registering .com names will be $6.42, up from $6.

This won’t cause the end of the world, and it probably won’t even drive anyone out of business, but Verisign is set to raise domain prices by 7-10%. More ominous is the possibility that the prices will, from this point on, continue to increase on a yearly basis. Oh, well - at least the company is being upfront about it. http://www.webpronews.com/topnews/2007/04/06/domain-name-prices-to-rise-and-keep-rising Two thirds of the online Europeans are aware of .eu (news release) Just one year after its launch, almost two thirds (63%) of the European online population are aware of the .eu Internet top level domain name and 45% know that they, as residents of EU, can get their own .eu domain name. These are some of the findings of a survey conducted by the independent company, InSites, on behalf of EURid. http://eurid.eu/images/Documents/Press_releases/eu_awareness_05042007.pdf Infrastructure ENUM by Geoff Huston After much initial fanfare a couple of years ago ENUM has matured to a state where it is currently yet another under-achiever in the technology deployment stakes. ENUM initially presented itself as a very provocative response to the legacy telco position of monopolising public voice services through their exclusive control over the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) and the associated controlling position over the telephone number space (the so-called “E.164” number space, after the ITU-T recommendation E.164 which recommends country code assignments for switched telephony services). The perception was that ENUM was going to dismantle these levers of control and open up the voice market to a new wave of competitive carriers. If the address plan was the key to the PSTN, then ENUM was intended unlock this network and position the new wave of VOIP carriers to take over any residual treasures of the traditional voice market. http://www.circleid.com/posts/infrastructure_enum/ Biggest threat to Internet could be a massive virtual blackout The most serious threat to the Internet infrastructure in the 21st century is a massive virtual blackout known as a "distributed denial of service attack," an outspoken board member for the group that administers Internet addresses said Thursday at a Hudson Institute briefing. This type of high-tech ambush, which occurs when multiple compromised systems flood the bandwidth or resources of a targeted server to make Web pages unavailable, could be devastating for global online communication, said Susan Crawford of ICANN. http://www.govexec.com/dailyfed/0407/040507tdpm2.htm za: New Panel to Get to Grips With Cybersquatters Cybersquatters will soon be evicted from internet addresses they have wrongfully registered as a new panel to settle domain name disputes opens for business this week. http://allafrica.com/stories/200704050715.html http://www.mybroadband.co.za/nephp/?m=show&id=6081 za: Finally, an end to cybersquatting You may not be familiar with the term 'cybersquatting', but you are probably familiar with the practice of cybersquatting. Cybersquatting occurs when a third party Internet user registers an Internet domain name incorporating your company’s name or your company’s trade marks. Typically, cybersquatters will then try sell the domain name back to you at an inflated price. http://www.ictworld.co.za/EditorialEdit.asp?EditorialID=28582 Torment of Typosquatting (video report) Cybersquatters are increasingly registering mistyped domain names, sending people to websites covered with advertising or even pornography. Microsoft says urgent action must be taken. http://www.ameinfo.com/116094.html In the wake of RegisterFly, is ICANN taking flight? In the aftermath of the ICANN meeting in Lisbon, the RegisterFly disaster continues to inspire both litigation and paranoia. Those connecting the dots are convinced that an ICANN report debated at the Lisbon meetings exploring the possibility of changing ICANN to an international organization along the lines of the International Red Cross is an attempt by ICANN to slither out of this whole mess. http://www.theregister.co.uk/2007/04/05/icann_registerfly_litigation/ Remain Master of Your Domain (Name) The Internet is a wild and wooly place, and the rules change constantly. Unfortunately, as with any frontier, there are individuals looking to profit at others' expense. These people, frequently called "cyber squatters," look for lapsed domain names that typically grab the interest of Web surfers or attract high volumes of traffic. Cyber squatters then often grab up the lapsed domain name and use that Web site for their own purposes. http://redorbit.com/news/technology/896093/remain_master_of_your_domain_name/ Taiwan Internet hosts rose to 9.77 million in January 2007 Taiwan hosted 9.77 million Internet domain names in January 2007, according to the Focus on Internet News & Data and Innovation Diffusion Enabler & Activator of the Advanced e-Commerce Institute (ACI-IDEA-FIND) under the government-sponsored Institute for Information Industry (III). http://www.digitimes.com/systems/a20070410PR208.html us: DHS could tap data on Internet domain names The Homeland Security Department wants VeriSign Inc. to allow it access to the so-called master keys of the Internet to allow authorities to better track suspected terrorist activity, according to published reports. http://fcw.com/article98184-04-09-07 http://www.washingtontechnology.com/online/1_1/30434-1.html http://www.gcn.com/online/vol1_no1/43443-1.html us: Orso's Suing For Defamation Over Website Two websites, with two very similar names, have two very different opinions about the work done at a Syracuse auto body shop.

Joyce and Johan Groters have used the name Wairaurahiri Jet for the past 13 years to market their tourism business and it is painted on the side of their jetboat. However, competitors Paul and Gwen Roff, who operate the Hump Ridge Jet on the same river, have outmanouvred them on the internet, buying domain names www.wairaurahirijet.co.nz, wairaurahiri jet.com and wjets.co.nz, all of which take internet users to a website that promotes the Roffs' own tourism business. http://stuff.co.nz/stuff/4019917a6011.html auDA Conducts Online Policy Survey (news release) auDA's 2007 Names Policy Panel is Currently Considering Changes to .au Policy http://www.webhostdir.com/news/articles/shownews.asp?id=20177 UK firms risk losing online brands to Asian rivals Businesses must act now to secure their Asian internet presence as the new .asia domain name becomes a reality.

The new law establishes "an electronic registration mark that may not be used to trigger advertising for a competitor and creates a database for use in administering marks." This electronic registration appears to cover trademarks as well as domain names, which are not necessarily trademarks. http://informationweek.com/news/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=198800360 us: Keith Urban countersues Keith Urban Keith D.

It registered this name for a client, which bears the name "Grundke Optik", and then parked the domain name (which directed to the agency's pages). A third party, which family name is Grundke, sued the agency, and first obtained a motion for dispute from the German domain administration DeNIC which prevented the domain from being transferred. http://domaine.blogspot.com/2007/04/legitimate-registration-of-name-on.html A registrar which is required to transfer a domain name is not liable for doing so The registrar Tucows Inc. and its subsidiary OpenSRS, transferred Robert N.'s name petswarehouse.com.
