Because I'm certain some mainland Chinese guy who's not even allowed to access Google except through a proxy server is going to get the brilliant idea to rip off a relatively obscure british techno label. Yeah, cybersquatting sounds about right. </sarcasm> I doubt it's anything other than the company having its thumb up its ass. the DNS registration business is a case of far too many fish in the bowl - pretty difficult to keep more than a handful of businesses profitable in an int'l commodity market. Isn't VeriSign about to lose its license to provide DNS services?
