isPermaLink="false">http://www.dotsauce.com/2008/01/08/networksolutions-scandal-hijacking-domain-searches/#comment-28013</guid> <description>As founder of a nonprofit 501c3 organization ruined by Network Solutions, I have been looking for more of its victims.
Once upon a time, public charities that exist solely to do good for others, could count on corporate giants for assistance in the form of business volunteers, financial and in-kind donations. It seems those days are long gone.
Network Solutions invited, encouraged, then helped id thieves usurp our domain name, which is the distinctive name of a recognized public charity. We were registered with NetSol since our creation in 1998. Aiding and abetting public fraud and deception is a criminal act. In inviting any and all comers to fake the identity of an existing public charitable organization, Network Solutions overstepped its bounds, and showed a lack of basic human decency.
Our cyber squatter, solicited by Network Solutions, linked every single page of our web site to thousands of porn sites, just as we had received public funding. Network Solutions, alerted to the problem, refused to shut down the site.
Did somebody here mention I-CANN!? Maybe Network Solutions interprets I-CANN as meaning ‘I can do whatever the f I want to the reputation of your business because I control the Internet, and U-DON’T.’ Network Solutions, feel free to use that as your ad slogan. As a volunteer to the arts, I’m used to working for free.
Thanks to your rebuff of intellectual property and the IRS’ public charity laws, I have had to play the role of police. Our id thief rapidly went on to scam the public by using the distinctive name and mission of a public charity. Thanks to you, he obtained a public grant using our name.
It doesn’t take rocket science to figure out how Internet fraud is financed. I later discovered that tens of thousands of other nonprofit organizations were potential victims of Network Solutions&#039; unethical business practices.
Victims of Network Solutions, I urge you to flood the Virginia State Attorney General’s office with your complaints.
