Sorry, but godaddy had been getting complaints for quite some time about these folks at nectartech. Had GoDaddy not resolved the issue by killing the registration for nectartech, the next step was going to be to start going after godaddy itself. Godaddy had to protect their other customers. They did the right thing. | |

You don't lart much, do you?
I fairly certain that such was done, and ignored by l3 and cogent. That's what teir three providers generally do with such complaints. | |

I've spoken with Level 3 on many levels (no pun) and they have taken appropriate action.

I know when I lart them, all I see or get from them is an auto ack. When it is a lart for a spamvertized site, a check back a few days (or weeks) later shows the site still up.
Then of course there is the matter of their 28 current un-addressed spamhaus listings... If they aren't even going to address complaints that have turned into spamhaus listings... | |

| To me, it shouldn't matter if it was 1, 10, or 10,000 domains. It shouldn't have happened the way it happened. And in the unlikelyhood that it did happen, it should have been able to be quickly resolved. Shutting down a domain late on a Friday and having no way to turn it back on until the 24/7 abuse department comes back in is ridiculous.

Shutting down a domain late on a Friday and having no way to turn it back on until the 24/7 abuse department comes back in is ridiculous. Not to mention that killing the domain should be a last resort. If there's an abuse problem, you start with the company hosting the box doing the abusing, then go to their upstream provider(s). If it's something incredibly horrible, like a box serving up stolen credit card numbers, then MAYBE you escalate to the registrar for the domain in question, NOT the domain of the host.
Would everyone be OK with this if for example Speakeasy, Verizon or Comcast's registrars just pulled their domain because someone on one of those respective networks was spewing something bad?
Has anyone here ever seen a domain of a legit business pulled like this? I've seen it for hardcore spam gangs, but never for something this silly.
