Yes we should, and furthermore we should pull out heads OUT of our asses
and stop being so holier-than-thou about it.
Verisign is learning their lesson, and it might take a while yet, but

This community needs to work together, not apart.

Verisign didn't do right last time, but they did this time.
Drop the grudge, and give them a break.
