taking url squatting to a new level

a friend of mine accidentally let his host package expire which included his url. the url was kinda long and including his unique name, in other words, it was no "cool.com." who snapped in up to hold it for ransom?

NAME.NET LLC

now my friend can bid on his own url using name.net's services in the hopes of getting it back for at least twice the price. what a bargain. for shame name.net, for shame. Posted by sugi_grl at October 5, 2005 04:12 PM
