Re: Domain shut downs by Registrar?

I'm not asking them to evade court orders, but rather keep their face
out of my business unless absolutely required. Other major registrars
seem to have a major issue with this.

We use OpenSRS and never have these issues. Many of the other major
registrars will freeze domains for whatever reason they choose.
OpenSRS basically fulfills their duties to ICANN and leaves it alone
at that. The only domain I have ever seen them get involved with was
along time ago when someone stole a domain from Network Solutions
using fraudulent paperwork and then managed to transfer it out.

I am also happy with OpenSRS, but I think it is fair to assume that
since they are incorporated in Pennsylvania, they would comply with
orders from a US court.

We do remember, don't we, that the domain that started this discussion
were shut down by Verisign, the registry, not a registrar?

R's,
