oinking* stunts - you find that -(1) the .info Sunrise phase - which has given
us the word - sunrise-squatters - (frauds and other fools who apparently include
some Afilias and ICANN board member registrars prepared to break International Trademark
Law and Afilias/ICANN regulations on the dubious practice of Registrar Reserve) -
the pigs at the trough have extended chow time;
(2) you find another example of
oinking*, in this case a registrar prepared to take USD$49 "to process" a Landrush
application, I suspect for a name whether or not it has been taken in Sunrise - and
get this - Domain Name Registration.com says that
"If your .info name is not successfully
registered, we will register an alternate name for you..."
This may in fact be
a good deal - as let's face it - it is now apparent that the registrars have access
to much better names than any of us who played by the rules and bought Landrush applications.
