my favorite:
   VeriSign spokesman Brian O'Shaughnessy said Tuesday that individual
   service providers were free to configure their systems so customers
   would bypass Site Finder. But he questioned whether releasing a patch
   to do so would violate Internet standards.
                  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

What else is there to say?  Any bets that Verisign tries to accuse ISC
of being a terrorist organization once the patch comes out?  At the least
a spurious lawsuit seems certain.
