After receiving a complaint from Microsoft, GoDaddy temporary hijacked the myBittorrent domain, but after emails back and forth the owners managed to regain control....
Details are missing, but I am ,again, concerned by the implication that godaddy would pull the registration for a domain name based on an accusation from a big corp like Microsoft. Notice that the article doesn't say "A court ordered godaddy to..." ...
