Hi all, Verisign likes the word delete! Here's a quick summary of their 3 paragaraph message. The word deletes, deletion or deletions shows up:
6 times in the first paragraph 2 times in the second paragraph The 3rd paragraph constitutes an invitation to "visit their site" and mention of addional products (this back-registering which I think ought to be banned) for sale. How insulting. This is what they do with the money they get. I am beginning to come of mind that their forms, websites and email correspondance have taken on increasingly rude tones.
