hi

Here's News.com's archive on the VeriSign SiteFinder change:
http://news.search.com/search?q=verisign+sitefinder

The column examines the controversy over VeriSign's Site Finder service.
The column argues that there has been a general lack of enthusiasm for
Internet governance issues but when it finally mattered - the moment 
VeriSign hit the switch - the Internet community learned how powerless 
it has become as ICANN and national governments did little to protect 
the public interest.

While VeriSign may eventually drop the service, the column concludes
that the Internet community will look back on the day that Internet
governance mattered and remember that they didn't.


- -- 
all the things we keep inside,
are the things that really matter,
the face puts on its best disguise,
and all is well, until the heart betrays.
