This Bill is even worse than feared - see London based Telnic's (.tel registry) response to the government informing them that the statutory instrument to seize managerial control of domain registries applies to them: http://prnewswire.co.uk/cgi/news/release?id=272545 http://prnewswire.co.uk/cgi/news/release?id=272545 Allegations of "abusive" behaviour on the part of registrars or end-users could lead an ignorant Secretary of State triggering this instrument. So what's "abusive"? Well just for starters, registering an expired domain name is. Yes really, that's what the government believes (see the Digital Britain report). So a company with about 12 employees has gone from being heralded at the UK IT awards last week for "the biggest innovation to come out of the UK since the www from Sir Tim Berners-Lee.".. to fearing nationalisation! Brown thinks he can run the "Digital Economy" like a Soviet tractor factory. Who would want to invest in this? What a joke.
