Verisign - getting all typo and expired domain traffic?
Verisign has started adding wildcard records to the .net and .com zones. So any mistyped .com or .net domain (that doesn't exist) will go to a Verisign page.
Did anybody else notice this? Here's an example... http://www.gofuckyourselfs.com/

What verisign has done breaks a multitude of things.
1. Made network troubleshooting a much more interesting task. 2. Broke mail servers that do reverse lookups on incoming mail to verify the sending domain exists. 3. Breaks secondary mail servers if there are typo's in the primary mx records. (the mail ends up at verisign and is bounced. I would go to the secondary mail server for processing with out verisign hijacking the unregistered domains) --- "failure is not an option. It comes bundled with Windows." Ian G. |

they have control of dns zones and they send it to their site as 404. This is historical date for the internet. Major change......

from http://www.betanews.com/article.php3?sid=1063691303
"redirecting all nonexistent Web addresses, as well as those without valid DNS entries, to a VeriSign search page." so if your unused domains have wrong DNS entries they hijack it |

VeriSign has partnered with Overture to handle Site Finder search results, although the company has not said how much it expects to make from the deal.

rr.com has null routed the IP they are using to land all those on.
way to go. and whoever started this thread... apparently verisign only takes the web traffic, they have no MX entries in the dns zones for all of those, so it really doesnt effect mail for expired/unregistered domains. |

"It's difficult to determine exactly how much revenue VeriSign could create. Back-of-the-envelope calculations suggest that VeriSign could create revenue of $1m per day for itself and partners if it could convert 0.3% of its error messages into paid clicks. That's based on estimates (from Afilias's Mohan) that VeriSign's .com and .net registry returns about 800 million error messages a day, and the average pay-per-click of $0.40 reported by paid search leader Overture Services Inc in the second quarter 2003."

Versign is Wildcarding .com and .net.
You used to be able to do something like this before Verisign steped in. The best way to describe it is in a geeky conversation.. Client Machine (looking for www.gofuckyourself.com) : Hello ns1.gofuckyourself.com, do you happen to know where www.gofuckyourself.com is? Server (ns1.gofuckyourself.com): Well yes i do! Its at 64.88.blah.blah. Hey, while your here, did you know that I can also resolve any domains for . ? Pretty cool huh? Client Machine : Wow. Ill remember that. Thanks. End of conversation. Anyhow, when the client doesnt get a response from its primary NS, it now remembers "Fuck, ns1.gofuckyourself.com might be able to help out". So it asks ns1.gfy and it ALWAYS responds "Yep, micr0s0ft.com resolves to 64.64.55.11". Now ns1.gfy has control of all your type ins. Ive seen this work, one of my co-workers at another company I used to work for did this by accident. Fun until people complain  Im pretty sure noone will understand what im rumbling on about, but I feel good that I got this out of my system.

Verisign has been doing stuff like this since the early days. Always looking for a way to take advantage.

Most people use the DNS servers which was given to them by their provider, arn't those providers able to change/block this?
At my provider I still get the standard NO DNS error when I type a non existent domain name. |

I've been reading a few different ISP mailing lists, some of them are already making slight code changes to their DNS cache daemons to convert the Verisign IP into the correct "no domain exists" response.
