And they act like they're the victims.  Amazing.

"Without so much as a hearing, ICANN today formally asked us to shut down
the Site Finder service," said VeriSign spokesman Tom Galvin. "We will
accede to their request while we explore all of our options."

How about a public outcry?  Did you miss that part?  You don't deserve a
hearing.

Of course, they haven't removed the wildcard yet:
