Dig, surely you've been around long enough to know I don't give a shit what people think about me - certainly not those in the adult biz. I'm arguing FOR contracts, not for DirectNic. People seem to think that they can agree to a contract and then yell "Oh wait, there's no law that says I have to do Paragraph 1, sentence A" and that's that. It doesn't work that way in the real world.

Allow me to clue you in then, and perhaps clear up your misunderstandings here: A TOS is a CYA document. Every TOS in the world, for every business INCLUDING mine, basically says that the person posting the TOS can do anything they want, to anyone they want, at any time they want. That doesn't make it so. The question in this discussion is what a registrar is legally empowered to do, whether they can force you to do certain things on pain of losing your livelihood, and whether it's their place to police the intarwebs. FSC says it's not. Moniker says it's not. It's never been done before, and my best guess is that it's not going to be accepted by the webmaster community. It is a gross abuse of power and a giant overstepping of their boundaries.
Give up the TOS argument, it's irrelevant, you've repeated it until everyone is ready to throw up in their mouth a little bit.
