From WFTV news in Orlando, Florida:
A Florida company that sells online commercial payment software has sued its former chief technology officer, claiming that a porn site snapped up its web address when he allowed it to expire.
[...] The St. Petersburg company accuses co-founder and former CTO Lev Gorodinski of keeping vital passwords, software code and other sensitive information after abruptly quitting.
[...] Subsequently, all but one of Epay's 29 customers canceled their contracts, company officials said.
[...] The last customer, a preschool, left when the Epay web domain was turned into a pornography site, the lawsuit alleges.
The company's registration with GoDaddy expired and Gorodinski refused to give the company the information needed to access the account and re-establish its ownership, Epay officials claim.
Why is it always porn sites?

That's the kind of business that will offer excellent customer service.
Its these businesses whose customer stream is derived from advertising that one has to be leery of. They run on statistics, not service.

You forgot the abusive codependent relationship that inevitably develops wherever there is monopoly and customer service is meaningless: cable companies, marriages, families, militaries.
