GoDaddy has started a campaign to have VeriSign removed as the registry operator for the COM and NET gTLDs. They have also pledged $100,000 to help ICANN in its lawsuit against Verisign.

Why Recall the Registry from VeriSign?

To stop VeriSign from abusing its position as the exclusive provider of .com and .net registry services by engaging in unfair trade practices for financial gain.
To support ICANN in its defense of the lawsuit filed against it by VeriSign.
To provide stability to the Internet and protect it from unregulated abuse.


If VeriSign succeeds in its suit against ICANN and/or retains its .com and .net registry position, how will it affect me?

Your costs will increase.
Your choices will decrease.
You will lose the protection of a competitive marketplace.

You can view the new website and sign the petition at www.recallverisign.com

I signed it two weeks ago. I forwarded the link, www.recallverisign.com, to all my friends and colleagues. You guys should do the same.

Yeah, I agree. How Verisign continues to get away with these things is beyond me. ICANN just doesn't seem to notice...
