No, it's really a fundamental problem with DNS. Owning a DNS name is, by design, a temporary deal. Ultimately the domain name system is meant to help give a user-readable name to your IP, not to establish your identity for your entire life.

You've left 12 comments on this thread. In all of them you're very confident about your superior understanding.

And yet you seem to be really confused about the difference between DNS and a domain name registration.

Curious.

Care to point out what confusion you think I'm making, instead of snidely implying I have no idea what I'm talking about?
