http://www.icann.org/tlds/agreements/verisign/registry-agmt-com-25may01.htm "16. Termination ... B. In the event of termination by DOC of its Cooperative Agreement with Registry Operator pursuant to Section 1.B.8 of Amendment ___ to that Agreement, ICANN shall, after receiving express notification of that fact from DOC and a request from DOC to terminate Registry Operator as the operator of the Registry TLD, terminate Registry Operator's rights under this Agreement, and shall cooperate with DOC to facilitate the transfer of the operation of the Registry Database to a successor registry C. This Agreement may also be terminated in the by ICANN on written notice given at least forty days after the final and nonappealable occurrence of either of the following events: (i) Registry Operator: (a) is convicted by a court of competent jurisdiction of a felony or other serious offense related to financial activities, or is the subject of a determination by a court of competent jurisdiction that ICANN reasonably deems as the substantive equivalent of those offenses ; or (b) is disciplined by the government of its domicile for conduct involving dishonesty or misuse of funds of others ii) Any officer or director of Registry Operator is convicted of a felony or of a misdemeanor related to financial activities, or is judged by a court to have committed fraud or breach of fiduciary duty, or is the subject of a judicial determination that ICANN deems as the substantive equivalent of any of these" So all we need to do is either lobby us government (get to your senator or congressman; and before Verisign starts lobbying him directly) or get federal courts to convict the people at Verisign responsible for all this mess. -- William Leibzon Elan Networks william () elan net
