Companies that sell and broker Internet domain names filed two suits Monday against VeriSign and its oversight agency, accusing them of price-fixing and other anti-competitive practices. The federal antitrust suits are primarily over a proposed extension to a contract that VeriSign has with the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers to run the main database for the ".com" suffix. That renewal, in turn, was part of an accord reached in a longstanding antitrust dispute between VeriSign and ICANN.
