BEIJING, Jan. 5 (Xinhua) -- Chinese Internet users
lost about 10,000 dotcom Internet domain names due to disruption caused by the
Taiwan earthquake.
The China International Network Information Center said about 10,000 Chinese users were unable to update data
about their .com domain names and failed to re-register on expiry of their
domain times.
Domain name servers were not responsible for domain
names lost if the holder failed to re-register in the set period, said the
center.
"Because the domain names are lost due to an act of
God, enterprises and individuals involved may be appropriately compensated by
the domain name server, but the scheme is still under discussion," said an
insider. There were few cases in which lost domain names were resumed.
Undersea cable connecting China to the United States
was severed by the Dec. 26 earthquake off Taiwan's south coast, which caused
Internet connection disruption between the two countries since.
A full service is expected to be resumed by Jan. 15.
