China will not pay a cent to VRSN.Why pay $6 dollars to VRSN for every domain names when they don't need Verisign's technology to set up domain names?These guys are not stupid. The only time China will use a foreign company is if they have an inferior homegrown technology to compete with the latest available technology elsewhere as in the case of CDMA.This could be a wake up call for VRSN for paying $17 BILLION to a company under attack left and right.More extensions to come and more countries will question VRSN exclusivity.
