right, but if you look at the statistics, it's Verisign that always
gets their names hijacked.

i'd say 99% of domain theft over the past 5 years has come
from Verisign. they are disorganized, money hungry mother
fuckers. their support sucks. i just closed a case with them
for a domain 2 years after it was hijacked.

read around on the domain forums, shit like this only happens
with verisign. and if for some strange reason it does happen
with another registrar icann is quick to jump in and fix the
shit.

in this case, since icann is verisign's bitch, they just let verisign
drag this through the legal system.

would verisign raise prices? sure, why not, who the fuck cares. i
wouldn't trust them with a $10 registration now (even though
its $35 there).

will this cause a "major price increase" with all the registrars? fuck
no, other registrars don't allow hijacking of this magnitude to
ever take place.
