If the Commerce Department ruled that new.net threatened the very core of how the Internet works (which it does -- resolver libraries and nameservers were written to the spec, and the spec said that ONE zone was owned and managed by ONE entity -- and multiple root zones were never included in that concept), then I could see it legally working. -Mat Butler Speaking for myself, not my employer. -----Original Message----- From: Mark Radabaugh - Amplex [mailto:mark () amplex net] Sent: Wednesday, March 14, 2001 10:19 AM To: nanog () merit edu Subject: RE: Statements against new.net?
BUT if representatives from a dozen or a hundred ISPs meet together and choose to blackhole new.net for the explicit purpose of running them out of business, and then do so, they would be in violation of US anti-trust laws. -- David
But what if a quasi-government organization (ICANN) explicitly blessed the concept of banning alternate roots :-) Now there is a can of worms... Mark Radabaugh Amplex (419) 833-3635
