Trade links with them and then change your page so it has cp on it and then report it to Directnic then they bring your entire network down and lock your domains and you couldn't do a single thing about it and it would be tied up in court. Your program and sites would basically be screwed. DirectNic has been solid for us but this issue really has me concerned. We have enough to worry about in this industry and now we have to worry about our register bringing down our network. There is also the issue or privacy, Directnic wanted to see id's which is a huge privacy issue. The guy supplied id's but then was completly taken down. Lets say you agree with what Directnic did what happens if they overreacted and this guy is innocent? His domains were down for a week and he lost affiliates, members etc. It just seems like this issue should not be in the hands of the register, call me crazy. Since when do registers police domains? I hope we get more insite on this issue and some answers.

What if, what if, what if.

This is a simple of case of the registrar asking for documentation, the guy not having (or not wanting) to give it to them.

If he didnt have the docs, he's stupid.

If he had the docs and didnt want to show them to DirectNic, he's stupid.

Its been proven (i think) that there was in fact child porn (or at the very least pseudo child porn) on the domains the guy owned.

Mark again, what if one of your affiliates is reported to you for having suspected child porn on one of his sites where your banner displays, what do YOU do?

1) Nothing.
2) Report to the Feds.
3) Investigate and ask for IDs.
