It is apparent following the recent ICANN meeting that Verisign has determined they own the Internet and will determine how it works regardless of the needs of other stakeholders.
Please see this article on CNET: http://news.com.com/2100-1038-5088128.html

Frankly, it is my opinion that the business model that allows a vendor to highjack the Internet network control to its own ends - must now be brought to a halt.  Verisign has made it clear it will restart the Site Finder redirect whenever it pleases and that will be sooner rather than later.  They may decide to address a few of the problems or they may not.

Allowing Verisign to make whatever choices they decide are good for Verisign does not reflect in any way how the shared resource that is the Internet actually works day to day.  What can and cannot be done by a company in the position of Verisign must now be clearly codified and the balance of control must swing in the direction of the user community itself.
