I guess, as a customer, maybe that's what you should expect from a $8.95/yr/.com registrar?? Their margins are pretty thin so they won't invest much effort in defending you (as a customer) against a "big" complaint from a big complainer. > Hey, how do we get the one minute shutdown turnaround with GoDaddy when > it's actually warranted? That really is the question now. GoDaddy have crapped their nest badly with this, showing just how easy it _should be_ to get clearly "dangerous" domains (like, something claiming to be a US bank with a street address in the Ukraine and a (bogus) UK phone number, say) in their registry knobbled. Sadly they don't -- and we're sure, will continue to not -- provide this level of response for other such cases. Which begs the question -- exactly what kind of photographs of which important person(s) at GoDaddy does MySpace have??
