Yeah NS are a bunch of %$!@*&$#@

they should be shut down….

like the thing they had going ( do they still do this?) they would make domains that were not even rgistered point to a page they put up.

this was making problems for anti-spam software casue it made un-registered domains appear to be valid in dns.

that and many other things they do are “grey” areas at best.

Well NetSol does it from very first day they started, so nothing new here. And this is why people prefer services like GoDaddy… Let’s not make another buzz bubble from nothing…

No matter what they’re saying, they are now in the business of “domain squatting” as well.

People with time at their hands could annoy them by doing bulk bogus searches, with Network Solutions paying money each time you do a search for sdihfgkwehykdjf.com or whatever. Anyone care to write a script for that? :D

Network Solutions Scam…

I’ve just read a rather disturbing post on the component factory blog about Network Solutions and a potential scam they might be pulling.It would seem that when you search for a domain, they are automatically registering that domain, and charging…

That is shocking behaviour from Network Solutions if it is true. And I suspect it’s also illegal, as it’s anti competitive.

As for Google, for me, they abandoned “Do no evil” in favour of “See no evil” and “Hear no evil” when they agreed to participate in the opression of the Chinese population by agreeing to censor the internet.

As an example, do a search for tiananmen square on Google.com, note the articles with words like bloodshed, protests etc. Then try the same search on google.cn, note the tourist websites offereing virtual tours.
