I strongly disapprove of VeriSign's deployment of DNS wildcards in the .com &
.net top-level domains. It was done without prior announcement or discussion
(as far as I know), showing a blatant disregard for stability of the DNS in
favor of their own profits. Their refusal to back out the changes shows
further disregard for the common good of the Internet & contempt for its
coordinating organizations. I consider this is a clear abuse of VeriSign's
monopoly power & grounds for cancellation of their DNS-related contracts.
