Re: I don't get it
said by Dogfather  :said by supergirl :Just because cheapie registrars can't do it doesn't make it illegal. You should actually read the Sherman Anti-Trust Act before dismissing it. This is absolutely them abusing their market position for anticompetitive practices and it is absolutely illegal. That said, the only thing that results from class actions are greedy blood sucking lawyers like Sen. John Edwards getting filthy rich. This should be handled as a criminal case, not a civil case. that will keep the class action lawyers out of it.

NOTHING stops a civil case from happening if there is a criminal case going on. Infact often civil cases follow criminal cases so one leads to the other.
This is the ONE time I agree with a quick class action lawsuit.
If you are saying that s state AG or a US AG should be looking into this I agree, but you can't wait for this to happen. |

And what crime would you prosecute under? Who would get the jail time?
Aside from that, a criminal trial would not keep a civil suit from being issued. They might - and that's a strong MIGHT - wait for the criminal trial to stop before pursuing it, but there's no guarantee. |
