Subject: Name Transfer Blockage. Why no legal proceedings?

Message:
 

 
I see hundreds of postings about the deplorable methods NSI and other registrars are practising by not transfering domain names. Has anyone attempted legal proceedings against NSI and Register.com? I have seen many proceedings whereby one lawyer will prosecute for a body of people. Has this ever been attempted? What I cannot understand is how NSI or any other registrar has any right to withold a domain name for ANY excuse. If you buy a toaster from K-Mart and do not pay off your credit card, K-Mart cannot turn around and tell you, that you cannot use your toaster. If you buy a car and dont make the loan payments, The Car dealer does not tell you, you cannot drive your car. Instead a Governing agency steps in and repose's the car. NSI is illegally hindering other business's with their high handed practises. I see tons of complaints, and Icann is doing nothing at all. These are the worst case scenarios I meantion. Thousands of other people DO fill out every form and are in good standing on their NSI bill and still the transfer is blocked.
You may wonder why I have not sued NSI. I suppose for the same reaon as the rest of you. I am a tiny fly on the wall company compared to NSI. I instead suggest some form of group lawsuit against them. Is something like that even possible? I am no lawyer and know nothing about legal proceedings.
