[registrars] Is there a lawsuit in YOUR future?

"Registrars watch your back!

Newman & Newman's lawsuit against ICANN and Verisign ALSO mentions "John
Does" just like the Verisign suit against ICANN.

But in this cause, it would seem to refer to any Registrars who promote WLS
to consumers.

Remember the .biz lottery case? A bunch of Registrars got sued for
participating in the lottery. They all had to hire legal counsel to protect
themselves.

Any registrar that starts promoting WLS is fair game for Newman & Newman!"

=============

Can a registrar be served in Rome for a US-based lawsuit?

Hi Paul,

The legal action has moved from "threatened" to "filed".

See fightwls.com. See you all in Rome.

Cheers,
