Independent ISP Wins One Over Murdoch
Medium-sized UK ISP TWS has won a domain name appeal against News Corp.-owned MySpace. The politics of the ruling were complex, and the story may not be over, The Register reports.
TWS had owned the myspace.co.uk domain name since 1997, so should have the rights to it, but may have been profiting from ads run on the site since News Corp acquired MySpace in 2005.
Meanwhile the .uk administrator Nominet is in the middle of contentious elections.
It's a story to keep your eye on.
