DAN changes invoice/transaction/VAT process
Shocking new changes at Dan.com, with the company becoming a middle party in all sales.

Best of luck understanding the fine details that can be reviewed and discussed in this thread.

There is no final decision yet but it's definitely disappointing to thousands of holders of .in domain names, in India and worldwide.

Expired domain auctions at GoDaddy appear to be vulnerable to shill bidding, allowing a bidder with ill intentions to utilize alternate accounts and manipulate an auction. Using a low bid and a high bid that won't be paid, the auction awards the domain to the low bidder automatically. Read what other say about this claim.
