Friends just point me to read David Webb’s Post on HKIRC governance dispute, which I strongly recommend to all dot-hk domain owners, all HK bloggers / entities who had thought about owning one dot-hk domain.
In short, our government has never been efficient, never after the handover. It CANNOT BE TRUSTED to protect freedom of speech. It blocks foreigners for naive political concern. It dreams to be CCP hounds and no more.
But I just don’t know who can be trusted. Will Mr Webb take part to serve us citizens in the IT field? At least, can anyone tell me who are the best persons to direct HKIRC ? Sorry, but I have to say, the government may not be too bad a choice than other No-Names / Way-too-Busy-Big-Heads.
I have some dot-hk domains, but I’ve avoided to reg / recommend any one to reg more dot-hk s. HKDNR has reformed a little bit, yes, a little is still something. But I hate how it treats old customers. The fees, the service and the procedure set up in the old days are just VERY TERRIBLE. It hurts old birds too much, but HKDNR just keep all terms for it clumsy policy.
I don’t think entrance fee for dot-hk is high. But the service in return just does not match standards.
What else do people be aware of dot-hk sites then possibly mal-ware hosts ?
I don’t know. To me, dot-info has been a nightmare. Everytime I leave comment on blogs from other BSP, I am discouraged to set my link ref to this blog, because of dot-info ’s bad reputation. Akismet, what wordpress.com and many BSP uses, just drop all comments from people pointing to dot-info sites. I am quite sure that dot-hk would attain this state very soon, leading all owners, especially local students/teachers, bloggers to a dead alley.
Say something, Charles / Samson. I would not vote any of you. But it is your DUTY to respond, dot-hk dudes!
