my favorite:
VeriSign spokesman Brian O'Shaughnessy said Tuesday that individual
service providers were free to configure their systems so customers
would bypass Site Finder. But he questioned whether releasing a patch
to do so would violate Internet standards.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
What else is there to say? Any bets that Verisign tries to accuse ISC
of being a terrorist organization once the patch comes out? At the least
a spurious lawsuit seems certain.
