Verisign: holding us accountable will kill the Internet. The crooks and fumblers at Verisign are still trying to stave off the inevitable $100,000,000 payment that Gary Kremen is demanding for their criminally stupid handling of the theft of his sex.com domain. They're getting desperate now -- asking the court to hold back because the judgement would force the end of the Internet.
Considering the NSI believes the decision may force the end of the Internet and have "enormous ramifications for a large sector of similar service providers, including cable television service and telephone service providers", it is a shame its legal arguments aren't stronger.
