NSI does not own the root domain .com .org .net or any other TLD. They were *hired* by the NSF to manage the registration of domain names for these TLDs, and they have done a deplorable job. They are now being fired, if anyone is opening themselves up for a class action suite it is NSI for not relinquishing property that they have no legal right to claim as their own. Sheese!!! I wondered back in '78 how no-nothing dim witted liberal arts majors would ever find a way to make money on the Net, now I know...
