call HART crazy .. but
According to Yahoo News .. about 10,000 domains that were coming up for renewal in China was “lost” ..
because of the earthquake that cut undersea cables off the coast of Taiwan last month … Xinhua reported that full Internet service to and from China should be restored by Jan. 15 .
The news suggests that “Because the domain names are lost due to an act of God, enterprises and individuals involved may be appropriately compensated by the domain name server” … but that would sure suck if your business domain was scooped up because of this. What does compensation mean? The price of a domain renewal?
I know that it’s probably bad karma .. but are people buying Chinese domain names and then reselling them back to the businesses? And if so .. (YOU SICK INDIVIDUALS!) … where can I get a list? ;p
just kidding of course
