Yes, it was, at least from my view and memory of onionland.

When up against domain duress, you're fighting not only the registrar
but the registry and ultimately ICANN... and their governing
jurisdictions.

Being presumed anons on the backend too, I would doubt their records
at the registrar are in compliance with ICANN regulations. But when
faced with loss of domain anyways, taking a fight there via your
'virtual office' is no further risk to domain.

So let's see, if I down my service, shuffle some things around, and
write a 'big FUCK YOU' on the front page... I am now magically not
a TLA and trusted by anons? OMG, that's total WIN! Hang on while I
dial the field agents, you're about to see a bunch of sites blink :)

What if I write 'trust no one'? Does that make me trusted?

WalMart is hiring intel agents, you should apply ;-)
j/k.
