GoDaddy Rats Out the ModernWarfare3.com Owner
That man, in question, is Anthony Abraham from Miami, Florida. His trolling and obvious dislike of Activision has landed him in more hot water than he’d expected. Activision’s filed a domain name dispute with the National Arbitration Forum, and now that they know who Abraham is, he is pretty screwed. At the moment, the ModernWarfare3.com URL just brings up an error, as opposed to the Monty Python spoof video that was on through the weekend.
While all of this is pretty frigging funny, Activision has kind of brought this on themselves. They knew good and well that with the success of Modern Warfare 2 that there’d be a Modern Warfare 3, Infinity Ward issues be damned. It’ll be interesting to see what happens to Abraham in the end. In the meantime, I’d like to award Mr. Abraham with the “Troll of the Year” award.
Of course, even with all this trolling, it won’t matter until Battlefield 3 and Modern Warfare 3 duke it out on October 25 and November 8, respectively, of this year.

So basically GoDaddy just pulled a "Breach of Trust" (Which I believe is illegal, see AntiTrust Laws). So Mr. Abraham could sue them...

This is so stupid. He payed for the domain, and he has a perfectly legitimate reason to make the website. He wanted to direct people away from getting MW3.
Activision is a terrible company.
