Cybersquatting is bad, but publishing this about not only the person who did it, but also his father and his business isn't much better.

#13"Now for those who don’t know, a domain name isn’t tied to a server and nothing would need to be moved from a server that he would then be “giving” to us as there is no server involved."
I would need a lot more than $150 to suffer through transferring nameservers from GoDaddy again.

Thanks, the site traffic is under control now because of Cloudflare. My next post will be my love for them. :)

Naming and shaming can be a pretty powerful deterrant.

#20After having been in the local IT and software business in small-town Texas, I can assure you that this sort of stuff is alarmingly common amongst a lot of local IT shops. Now, giving credit where it's due, someone's at least gone to the hassle of putting up a thin veneer of respectability on this Turkette guy's website, but the "blog" page (http://www.turkette.com/blogs/ ... check out that awesome graphic) taken in concert with the Reputation Defense service pretty much shows that, if nothing else, Turkette is somewhat disingenuous in selling what he's incapable of delivering.
