With regards to similar lawsuits I don't know how I could forget the many regarding the Domain Registry of * [domainjacking.com]. And I shouldn't need a lawyer to tell me that an injunction isn't the final ruling in this case, it will presumably continue to meander. -g

ICANN should order the critically important "whois" and "nic" names in COM, NET, and ORG seized and used for the purposes of their respective registries.
Verio needs to stop profiting off of these two key and central names. They really should belong to their registry for proper use. :)
Nonetheless, it's a good ruling. Was this a ruling of the full appellate court or a three person panel? If it was just the three person ruling, I think Verio could appeal to the full appellate court but they'd most likely lose.
Beyond that, the next step would be to appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court. However, I really don't think they'd hear it.
Cheers,
Doug
