Ah, but one press account after another parrots the Verisign party line by describing this as "a service" rather than "an attack on the fundamental infrastructure of the Internet by a greedy monopoly". No doubt the scumbags at Verisign are delighted that their language has been accepted, and no doubt they'll be back -- soon -- with another try at this.
