"Fighting injustice, one victory at a time."
Dot Biz domain names are coming. NeuLevel, a VeriSign company, is the registrar for Dot Biz names. Last year, I reported to you that NeuLevel was running an illegal lottery scam for chances at Dot Biz domain names, and that I had contacted the company to demand an end to the illegal lottery. Today, NeuLevel announced that it had cancelled the lottery, as I had demanded, and was offering Dot Biz domain names on a first-come, first-serve basis.

I first told you in the June 21, 2001 edition of Liberal News & Commentary about how NeuLevel was selling lottery chances at Dot Biz domain names for five dollars a pop, but encouraging applicants to purchase as many as several hundred chances at the same name to purportedly increase your chance of winning desireable names. If, however, you were the only one bidding on a particular name, and there was no way for you to know because they wouldn't tell you, you could have ended up spending thousands of dollars for something that you could have had for only five bucks!
Then, in the June 22, 2001 edition of Liberal News & Commentary, I told you how I had attempted to get the United States Attorney General in Chicago to step in, because NeuLevel was going to pocket all of those five-dollar fees, potential making several billion dollars in this illegal private lottery scheme. The Bush administration, however, is in the business of protecting abusive Big Business (ain't that right, Kenny-Boy?), not prosecuting them, so the US Attorney refused to help.
Next, in the August 7, 2001 edition of Liberal News & Commentary, I told you how CNN had decided that the scam and my efforts to stop it were newsworthy. A full CNN camera crew with reporter came out to my office, taped an interview and made my efforts to stop the Dot Biz lottery scam the lead story on that week's CNN Dot Com television show, which is seen around the world on the Cable News Network.
In the October 13, 2001 edition of Liberal News & Commentary, I told you how a federal judge, in a case filed by another concerned citizen, had ordered a temporary halt to NeuLevel's Dot Biz private lottery scam.
Today, in response to the separate efforts of Rob Sherman Advocacy, the federal litigant and the heat from the spotlight of publicity put on the subject by ace reporter Bruce Francis and his CNN news team, NeuLevel announced that it had terminated its illegal Dot Biz lottery and was making Dot Biz domain names available on a first-come, first-serve basis.
Here is a copy of the NeuLevel announcement, entitled IMPORTANT NOTICE - .Biz Premium Registry Reserve Names up for registration now, that I received this morning.
