Dyndns bought out editdns. People with paid "lifetime" memberships were
promised the equivalent service but got something quite different
instead and had to pay a migration fee. A lot of lies were told at the
time regarding the situation.
They also bought "everydns" which is the point I switched to dns.he.net
(which is excellent and I recommend it). I was an everydns donator.
Again, the account offered to previous users was fairly limited to make
people upgrade to their "premium" service.
They also removed threads on the editdns forum during the migration
period that were in any way critical of the move, or when people wrote
about problems people were having. Due to the volume of complaints being
posted they eventually deleted the forum (saying that people should now
use their community forum, but it was very conveniently timed)
Dyndns are also imho overly expensive (compared to other services with
lots of "limits" to force you onto more expensive packages), and talk
about DNS like it something magical that only they can do (Their
marketing is very annoying).
