Recent Actions By Go Daddy

I would like to draw attention to the recent actions of the Go Daddy  
registrar in its decision to pull a .org domain name at the request of  
social networking site myspace.com because a third party had placed on  
the site a list of passwords and accounts of myspace users.

This strikes me as a serious abuse of power by a registrar, and should  
alarm the users of this constituency.  If registrars can exercise such  
unrestrained authority over registrants, then no controversial speaker  
is safe.

If there is not already a procedure for addressing this, I would  
strongly urge this constituency to take appropriate action.
