ICANN Almost Cracks Down on Spammy Domain Registrar

"ICANN's decision set in motion a process that would have removed 281,000 domains under EstDomains' management to another registrar.

"That all changed Wednesday when ICANN notified EstDomains that it would delay its decision to terminate the company's registrar accreditation pending a review. The decision to delay EstDomains' termination was prompted by a letter to ICANN from the company stating that Tsastsin had been removed as EstDomains' president."
