Folks, Kevin Murphy is reporting that "ICANN has introduced background checks for companies applying for accreditation." "Introduced" as in: never been done before. I was under the impression they always did this, but it explains why there are so many rogue Registrars. It supports the contention that they have not been properly vetting Registrars from the get go. http://domainincite.com/icann-tries-to-limit-rogue-registrars/ -Garth ------------------------------------- Garth Bruen http://www.knujon.com http://www.linkedin.com/pub/4/149/724 Linkedin Group: http://www.linkedin.com/groups?gid=1870205 Blog: http://www.circleid.com/members/3296/ Twitter: @Knujon Shop: http://www.cafepress.com/knujon Bookstore: http://astore.amazon.com/knujocom-20
