Re: [ga] GoDaddy VP Caught Bidding Against Customers

[<chris@xxxxxx>]

Hypothetical situation:

I own a company that sells something only to banks. I want to give my 
clients a dot bank domain name for their website for free because I think 
it's good for business. Who is qualified to tell me that . . .

1. the tld is not needed?
2. my business plan for the tld is not a viable business plan?
3. I am not allowed to do whatever I want with the tld as long as what I do 
does not technically threaten the stability of the Internet?
