‘.sucks’ dispute escalates as IPC president responds to threats and Congress holds hearing

Earlier this week, we reported on a letter from Vox Populi Registry, the company behind ‘.sucks’, challenging the referral of the IPC's concerns over its pricing policies to the US Federal Trade Commission and Canada's Office of Consumer Affairs. In response, the president of the IPC has told WTR: “I for one do not intend to be muzzled”. Meanwhile, in DC a US Congress judiciary committee hearing has given stakeholders a forum to discuss the string.
