Well, this is just juvenile;
In May of this year, CSA launched a claim against RestoreCSA with the Canadian Internet Registry Authority (CIRA).
In Canada, CIRA is the authority responsible for the registration of website addresses. They don’t control the content of websites but they do have power over the addresses of websites using the “.ca” suffix. In this case, the CSA was claiming the right to own the RestoreCSA.ca address and, on this argument, they made some demands.
Specifically, CSA requested that CIRA “order that the registration of [RestoreCSA.ca] be transferred to the Complainant.” In other words, they wanted CIRA to take the RestoreCSA.ca address away from its legal owner, P.S. Knight Co. Ltd., and give that ownership to CSA Group.
And they lost.
in a word. good.
maybe the CSA will hold their breath until it turns blue…
BIG BROTHER GO AWAY
I am sorely tempted to register RestoreCSA.{every other existing TLD} for ten years via an offshore domain registry, mirror the content, and tell the CSA to come and get me, the fairies.
As an Electrician this ongoing nonsense at CSA is of great interest to me. Thanks for the post.
