WIPO takes 80% of all (whatever)sucks domain names away from the owners and gives them to the protest-filing companies - so much for free speech on the net. But attorney Ed Harvilla came up with a solution: "Sucks" sites to be doled out for free.
'Harvilla and a group of silent partners are launching the “Free Speech Center.” Harvilla has dozens of .com, .net, .org, and .info domain names than can be appended with a prefix — known to technologists as the hostname of a URL — to make a logical protest site destination. On the list: bizsucks.net, comsucks.net, edusucks.net, and orgprotest.org. So any company that didn’t like Harvilla’s site could create a site called “FreeSpeechCenter.orgprotest.org.”'
One can only hope it catches on. We need to thin the ranks of the gruntled.

Posted by: lee at January 25, 2002 12:12 AMYes indeed, the Ford Focus STILL SUCKS. I got satisfaction from Ford, so I let the website drop since no one gave a SH*T about protecting themselves, friends or family members...
