    Default ICANN "mistakenly" transfer their own domains due to fraudulent request!

    Internet addressing agency loses its addresses - Technology & science - MSNBC.com

    I couldn't help but have a chuckle when I read this. I mean you would have thought if any domain was safe it would have been theirs .

    I think this definitely goes on a par with such things as spelling mistakes in the dictionary and the government losing all our data on CDs!

    LOL - they are so concerned with the security and safety of their customers domain names that they forget to protect their own domain.

    I got it, they lose control and then gain control.
