Whois Abuse Still Out of Control
It's still easy to try to steal an identity with false whois information. There are rules against it and ICANN pretends to enforce them, but I personally know that it doesn't really happen.

Larry Seltzer Struggles with “Whois Identity Theft”
I’ve heard people complain about “whois identity theft” before. Essentially, this is when someone uses your name on their whois record. You can imagine how this could potentially be troubling for you, depending on the domain name. But in the case of eWeek writer Larry Seltzer, the “identity thief” went several steps further.

Who manages the internet?
We use it every day, but how much do we really know about the internet? Looking into its innards illustrates why it is referred to as a "net" or "web." One node leads to another, interconnected while appearing autonomous. Acronyms abound: ICANN, IANA, DNS, ISP, TLD, IGF, NIC and NIXI - knick knack paddywhack, give a dog a bone.

Here are some things for domainers to consider now that the Kentucky case has been overturned. The Kentucky Court of Appeals has overturned a trial court’s ruling that the state could seize domain names associated with online gambling.

Outdated Whois Information Might Lead to False Light Tort: Meyerkord v. Zipatoni by Eric Goldman
It's a late entry, but this opinion may be a dark horse candidate for the most bizarre case of 2008. Meyerkord was a Zipatoni employee and listed as the registrant on domain names at Zipatoni's Register.com account. Meyerkord left in 2003. In 2006, Zipatoni ran an astroturfing viral campaign for Sony to promote the Play Station Portable at the domain alliwantforxmasisapsp.com... Unfortunately for Sony -- and Meyerkord -- the campaign did not go well.

So, China will be able to have the equivalent of .cn in Chinese and India the equivalent of .in in a number of the 12 different scripts in use there. This is going to dramatically increase the number of people who have access to the internet that is currently limited by the requirement for an, at least, basic understanding of the Latin alphabet and the ability to switch languages or scripts on the computers keyboard.

vn: Why registering domain names is crucial
Unique internet domain names are registered on a first-come, first-served basis. Besides being used to locate an address on the internet, in place of a hard-to-remember numeric serial chain, domain names are a superb marketing tool, a method to telegraph information about the business or service being offered. As a consequence, a domain name is a highly valuable resource for any company.
