This is just another example of a virtual monopoly doing whatever them damn well please because .... THEY CAN.
Sorry to sound like a broken record, but we in the Inclusive Namespace have been saying this all along.
How about a world with 1000's of TLDs all operated by different people with NO restrictions imposed by a monopoly-supporting politburo (ICANN).
Then things would be a million times worse. At least thankfully we have a monopoly regulator which _can_ force Verisign to undo the damage. Your world would only promote registrars doing whatever they please. Thankfully, for yet another reason, you aren't in control.
