Harassment (was Re: ELAN.NET ...)

Without comment on any other issue,

<hat = registrar>

Another item of note is the phone number in ELAN.NET domain registration
is invalid. William is in breach of his registration agreement, and
liable to lose his domain name unless he corrects this.

I don't know of a registrar who cares above nominally about the correctness
of whois:43 data. Billing data is another matter. The author of the para
above is ... should breath into a paper bag for a few minutes until the
hypervenilation passes.

</hat>

Please note <expired_hat == (registry && ICANN_INSIDER)> agree </hat>

Cheers,
Eric

I believe at least one antispam service - spamcop.net - had its domain pulled by joker.com, ostensibly for "invalid whois data". This seems to be fixed now.

Joker seems to be on a roll lately - they did the same thing to spews.org.
All I know is that antispammers are on alert and moving domains away from
joker at this point, since it seems very easy to fool them into suspending a
domain name on faked evidence.
