With the numbers and political/legal power potential represented by the institutions here, there should be a way to pull that registration from Vantage Media Corporation and permanently block future possible registrations of edu.com. What if it had been an internet porn merchant -- off shore?
Given the number of years that a porn merchant *did* cybersquat on whitehouse.com, and the political/legal power represented by the group on the corresponding .gov, I doubt a mere coalition of universities is going to be able to do much about Vantage Media.....
