The latest on VeriSign and ICANN

Here are the latest updates about the VeriSign controversy...

Slashdot brings us the news that VeriSign has blown off the ICANN request to stop using Site Finder.

ICANNWatch.org has several interesting items, including a hidden Web bug found on the Site Finder page, and an analysis of the Site Finder patent.

Finally, the Domain Name registrar Go Daddy is suing VeriSign.

Like the earlier suit, which was brought by Popular Enterprises, of Orlando, Florida, Go Daddy's lawsuit claims that VeriSign is misusing its role as the .com and .net domain registry to muscle out competition.
