George and all,
From where I and our members sit, Neustar is and has been
a bad stuart of .biz given it's history and creation which
was
ill conceived by ICANN at the time. Our members have
boycotted
.biz senses Neustar was awarded as the registry.
However .ORG is even worse in MHO as it has become and
been a haven for Child porn domain names and the ISOC/PIR's
self regulation, ICANN's oversight AND DOJ's lack of
investigative
man power have left ISOC/PIR and ICANN to be complacent
in cleaning up the ISOC/PIR indifference and lack of
concern
for exploited children. However with new legislation being
introduced that may be applied to safeguarding against
Child
porn perhaps the DOJ will have another weapon by which they
can address more directly ICANN, ISOC/PIR's, and registrars
hiding their Child porn activities...
