Directi suspends 175,547 abusive domains

Oct. 27, 2008

Directi suspends 175,547 abusive domains, while 527,000 abusive domains had their PrivacyProtect.org anonymity revoked. Details: http://hostexploit.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=16 I congratulate Directi and HostExploit on this initiative. I trust this will set an example for other registrars on how to react where they find their services are being abused to the detriment of other internet users or like.
