[NA-Discuss] I find this to be very annoying

[Danny Younger]

Gareth,

In the United States we had problems with an
Ontario-based firm that operated under the name Domain
Registry of America, Inc.  Federal Trade Commission
action was taken -- see
http://www.ftc.gov/opa/2003/12/domainreg.shtm

What you have documented is likely your local
equivalent.  DROC is a domain name reseller.  They use
eNom as a primary accredited registrar.  For one view
on eNom's attitude toward the rights of the general
public see this recent post:

regards,
Danny
