If you want to establish identities, the time to do that is at registration time - not crunch time.Hello, my name is Joe Greco, I made a bad mistake registering the IP addresses of dns1.sol.net, dns2.sol.net, dns4.sol.net, and dnsz.sol.net, and I need you to change them to 216.218.130.2, 216.218.131.2, 216.218.132.2, and 216.218.132.2, respectively. I have deposited $100 to you via PayPal to cover the sudden-change fee. Now YOU tell ME what purpose an identity check serves. ;-)
Yes, that's nice, except that Joe Greco isn't authorized to do that. We're not talking about a system operating in a vacuum here. There are already established mechanisms for guarding domains. We're talking about rapid update authorization. So go ahead and tell me exactly what you've done, beyond enriching a registrar $100. (Incidentally, since we're the reseller, you probably just sent us the $100, so by all means, send us beer money.) ...
