[NA-Discuss] OnlineNic, again

[Danny Younger]

Last month we discussed the OnlineNic situation.  

>From the minutes:  "This is an ICANN accredited registrar that was convicted of cyber-squatting.  ICANN should de-register them.  Danny would like our rep at the ALAC meeting tomorrow to forward the view that appropriate enforcement action must be taken.  Beau has seconded that.  All in agreement."

Of course, to date, the ALAC has done nothing to specifically address the NARALO concern regarding OnlineNic's accreditation status.  No surprise there as the ALAC is as close to useless as one could imagine.

Now we get yet another report that OnlineNic has been hit with yet another lawsuit (fourth one by my count) for trademark infringement -- see http://www.rfcexpress.com/lawsuit.asp?id=43567

One has to wonder how many more lawsuits it will take before ICANN recognizes that it has a very bad apple that must be removed from the barrel.
