Department of Homeland Security Seizes 70+ Domain Names for Willful Copyright Infringement.

What the Fuck?

TL;DR
Homeland security is literally seizing domains from their registrars under the auspices of copyright infringment. As in "Hey man, I'm DHS and I own your domain now, fucker." Copyright infringement or no, there are proper channels for things like this; DMCA and the like. This is wrong. Downright wrong.

  • If this doesn't spread outside .com it shouldn't be too much of a problem, but troubling non the less.
  • I can't see this going on too long before jurisdiction gets challenged if of hasn't been already.
