AIB Phishing Update

| | Comments (3)
I grabbed a screenshot of the latest AIB phishing attack earlier this morning In most instances phishing sites are taken down by the hosting provider, however in this instance the domain has actually been revoked from the root nameservers. The domain's status has been changed by the ICANN registrar to:
status: hold,infringe-3rd-parties
which is interesting. Does this mean that registrars are going to be more proactive in fighting phishing?

Just reading this post, I had a flashback to the theme of "Team America" - World Police.

I'm not sure that the root servers should be taking sides in this - it could get nasty!
