Enom did not fight as far as I know when the US government seized a British citizens domains who was booking Cuba hotel rooms from outside the US.

He had no ties to the US but the US government told enom to seize his domains.

What registrar has fought court orders and the like for their customers? Anybody know?

Didn’t like eNOM to start with. This is the last nail in the coffin.

Hmm, eNom could always pass the back to the Kentucky Commonwealth. Beats me who’ll turn out right.

If the order is found unconstitutional or otherwise knocked out, Kentucky would tell the registrants to sue the registrar for damages since they told them not to change the servers
