phantom accreditations (exposed?)
Registrars: Can anyone (paul, rob) speak to the following: It seems as though the folks that created the largest number of phantom accreditations are in fact the drop aggregation companies. It appears that momentus (Rob Hall) incorporated a huge number of organizations and then had them all partner with pool.com; thus dividing the pool.com partners pie. Apparently eNom did the same... Incorporating a large number of organizations and competing with their partners in their "drop club" I expect most of the other "big" players have executed similar stragities. What bothers me the most is... o the aggrigator (pool.com, eNom) cry "no-fair" but don't seem to be playing fair either. o the aggrigators of connections have incorporated the most phantom accreditations o apparently, greed wins again. o ICANN is completely inept at handling this situation the here-say is that Jeff (AAAQ.com) started all this with starting 25 new registrars... I'd appreciate anyone enlighting us regarding any of the above. Its all here-say and the only indication I have is the pool.com -vs- VeriSign lawsuit where many of the accreditations listed on that document are both pool partners and affiliated with momentus. the rest comes from tracking the IANA Registrar (Global ID) from the IANA archive of Assigned Numbers. thanks, -rick
