>>>Sure Larry, but...

Who is to decide ethical practice?
Consumers do not complain when confronted with better deals.  So where
do you draw the line?
This is all too exciting for me.
What we need is an educational Icon.
Like a Domain Name Clown, he could teach children about DNS and industry
pricing (clarify and correct confusion). Get them while they are young.

Larry Bloch, CEO at domain name and Web hosting company NetRegistry,
said
NetRegistry had been involved in trying to stamp out misleading
practices
in the industry. 

Bloch said a case, such as the one the ACCC was bringing against
Internet
Name Group, would serve to put the spotlight on what was, and wasn?t,
considered
unethical practices in the industry. It serves to educate, clarify and
correct
confusion, Bloch said.
