Perhaps he should read a little of the recent court orders relating to ING as noted below. THE COURT ORDERS BY CONSENT THAT: Upon the first respondent, by its counsel, undertaking that until the hearing and determination of the proceeding, or until further order: [snip] (c) represents that it has a pre-existing relationship with a person, if in truth it does not, in particular, by stating that there is such a relationship or by describing its notices as "Renewal Advices" or by an invitation to "confirm" a renewal or by addressing its notices to "accounts payable". The notices it sends to those persons to whom it does not have a pre-existing relationship will include the statement: "You do not have to renew your domain name registration through ING" (such statement to appear in the body of the text (in the same size and font as that text) on the front page of the notices); etc. etc. ************************************************************************* ========================================================================= Historical records re: Mr Rod Keys: ========================================================================= ************************************************************************* > -----Original Message----- > From: Rod Keys [mailto:info§safeway.com.au] > Sent: Friday, March 15, 2002 2:09 PM > To: ginger-fish§scifi-art.com > Subject: COC> > > Hi > I am on the comittee but we are unable to comment until the COC is in the > public domain we will then listen to your comments and work with them > Regards, > Rod Keys > Director > DDNS > 8/118 Church St, > Hawthorn, Vic, 3122 > Ph 03 9815 6868 > Fax 03 9815 6800 > rod§ddns.biz > -----Original Message----- From: Ginger Fish [mailto:ginger-fish§scifi-art.com] Sent: Monday, May 13, 2002 1:29 PM To: Dns§Lists.Auda.Org.Au Subject: [DNS] Discount Domains and the ACCC And here we have another case for the ACCC.
