I just became aware of an SOP at Network solutions. On a contact change
to a domain, they automatically transfer lock the domain for 60 days.
I am aware of ICANN-approved behaviors like 60 days lock on new or
transfered registrations.
This is a new curve ball and seems a little out-of-the-spirit of ICANN
regulations (last I saw them).
Is anyone aware of this as a kosher activity and is anyone aware of any
other registrars doing it? Keep in mind, these are legitimate contact
changes and not suspicious in anyway.
Thanks in advance,
DJ
