I don't think anybody wants to convey knowledge to Verisign, I think they want to convery utter contempt. But, done politely, without the traditional throwing part. I actually think it's a great idea, because then the group can express their displeasure without having to berate the messengers. Just a big message that says "you're a company run by douchebags", without anybody having to make an ass of themselves. You have to give Verisign some props for having the balls to present at NANOG...and those props should be in the form of not chasing them from the room with angry threats and pitchforks.
