Hi Evan, Thanks for the information. Just curious, do you think the Ticketmaster/Scalper relationship (primary/secondary market) for tickets is analogous to domain name markets? Cheers, David On Thu, Feb 11, 2021 at 12:36 AM Evan Leibovitch <evan@telly.org> wrote:

All you domain speculators who fancy yourselves marketing experts and are camped out in NARALO because, I would guess, no other constituency will have you .... your turn. I see that some have already posted lame rebuttals on CircleID, read them and have a chuckle. (It's still noteworthy that nobody I know in ICANN-land defends the practice except those with direct financial interest in it.)
(And thank you to the kind NARALO member who found the article, figuring that I might have more fun posting it here than they would. You're probably right.)
Disclosure: I have never accepted money from AT&T or any other telco or ISP for that matter. My shitty mobile provider won't even give me a decent discount, but the others are no better. I did win a T-shirt a few years ago from SiriusXM, does that count? Cheers,
