Baidu, Inc. announced that it has sued domain name registrar Register.com over a hacking incident by Iranian Cyber Army earlier this month. Baidu claims that Register.com was negligent, allowing the hackers to change the DNS for the domain name.

I have searched U.S. Federal Court records to find the lawsuit, but have not located it. It will be interesting to see the details behind the lawsuit, as presumably it will detail what exactly the hackers did to take down the site, including any edits to the nameservers for Baidu.com.

Once again, it’s time for a registrar to offer bullet-proof registrations, including a service that requires in-person verification to make any changes to a domain’s contact information or nameservers. I’m not sure if such a service will profitable, as I know at least one domain entrepreneur tried this in the past. Will companies pay substantially more to ensure their domain names aren’t hacked? They should, but that doesn’t mean they will.

而在文章下面的评论中，有网友甚至揶揄地称：我的魔法水晶球告诉我，百度是不会为了这次事件去任何地方诉讼的，他们仅仅是想利用此进行宣传炒作。

据报道在百度传出诉讼Register的消息后，百度的股价上涨了20%。
