According to Chuck Gomes, their Director of Customer Programs: "Last, we constantly find ourselves having to prioritize tasks. We have long lists of improvements that are planned so there is always competition for resources. The bogus information issue has only been a big concern of a few of our customers. In my role as Director of Customer Programs, I try to push hard for the changes that will impact the most customers in the most effective way possible. I for one am not convinced that putting a lot of effort into this problem will have any significant effect." Furthermore, Chuck, in several weeks of exchanges, was never able to provide a single valid reason ["because people filter on domain names" doesn't constitute a valid reason] why they don't just enforce their Registration Agreement and delete a domain with false information when it's brought to their attention. If it's in your contract, and the violation is pointed out to you...how much "work" does the problem need? Spam: it's not just for breakfast anymore....
