VeriSign's antitrust suit against ICANN dismissed

Who is Verisign (or is it ZDNet) to say what's unheplul?: VeriSign has defended Site Finder by saying it offers a better way to handle misspelled or nonexistent domain names than the unhelpful error messages that some Web browsers currently provide.

They sure have a funny notion of helpful. "The Domain www.typo.com Does Not Exist" is very helpful, indeed. It's a lot more helpful to network apps that rely on DNS to work as expected than "The Domain www.typo.com Exists" if it really doesn't.

Maybe Verisign means "unhandholding," or maybe "unmonetized."

It'll be back up to its no good. The judge didn't say Verisign can't relaunch the beast.
