Verisign sets sites on 'Finder again


Verisign, the company that has a government-granted monopoly to control the root-level domains for .com and .net, is looking at reviving its SiteFinder service, according to an article in the Washington Post. With claims like "Site Finder was not controversial with users, 84 percent of whom said they liked it as a helpful navigation service," the company is completely ignoring the unfair competition aspect and the technological headaches caused by the system.
