Court Rules For Critic of Taubman
A three-judge panel in Cincinnati ruled that Web designer HenryMishkoff, a Carrollton, Texas, resident, can keep five Web sites that attack Taubman, including Taubmansucks.com. "We find that the domain name is a type of public expression, no different in scope than a billboard or a pulpit, and Mishkoff has a First Amendment right to express his opinion about Taubman," U.S. 6th Circuit Judge Richard Suhrheinrich wrote for the panel.

CUSTOMER TESTIMONIAL
Superior service over Verisign as well more willing to support individuals like myself who sometimes may need additional support beyond the website. I think that Buydomains.com is very fortunate to have young professionals representing them and also please send them my regard for their support and cooperation during my most stressful crisis with Verisign. I already look forward to speaking to you again next week and sincerely hope that I have the opportunity to keep working with you directly through the remainder of my complete transfer and consolidation phase from Verisign to buydomains.com. I like your prices because it helps a small business owner like my self get started without such over priced sites.
Sincerely, Motuyale Peter
