Wired: A Ralph Nader [Domain Name] Plan That 'Sucks'
Mar 2, 2000, 18 :40 UTC (3 Talkback[s]) (4588 reads)

(Other stories by Declan McCullagh)

"Critics, malcontents, and disgruntled employees would be able to register domain names like microsoft.sucks and mcdonalds.sucks, according to a proposal from two organizations that Nader heads."

"On Wednesday, they sent a letter to ICANN asking permission to set up a service that would provide 10 new top-level domains, including .union, .sucks, .ecology, and .complaints."

"The idea, according to Jamie Love of the Consumer Project on Technology, is to create non-corporate discussion and organizing areas 'to enable citizens to improve civil society.' "
