All I can say is wow. Not from the ordeal in the article, but that anyone can not know who Network Solutions is and that "anybody but Network Solutions" is how GoDaddy became so big.
All I can think of is that I saw the Network Solutions name, recognised it as a big brand and having not dealt with them directly before decided they can't possibly be that bad... right... right?
For future reference, giving someone permission to withdraw money from your bank is usually a terrible idea. With a credit card you have the ability to charge back errant/unrequested charges (credit card companies are perfectly helpful with this).
Perhaps I should edit the article to explain this. I used a VISA Debit card to pay for the domain so while I do have the ability to charge back erroneous transactions the money does also just come straight out of my VISA Debit account, for better or for worse.
