Boule fukkery maybe??:manny:

:jbhmm:
Could be, I wouldn't dismiss their involvement tbh.
Wonder if dude is a part of them or pissed somebody powerful off?:patrice:

Either way, this is some discouraging shyt and a hard lesson in having strong networks/connections. The only silver lining here is that he's still working in this field. Think he has a new company with his son too.

Emmit went to wealthy high profile Blacks and they all refused to invest in his company. He tried the financial institutions and Wall Street and they also said no. In the meantime the government kept insisting if he could not keep up with the volume they would break the contract.

He was proven and they still refused? :stopitslime:

In 1995 Emmit sold Network Solutions to Science Applications International Corp (or SAIC) for 4.8 million plus personal and business debt

:mjcry:

A Wall Street Company called VeriSign, Inc. was the winner. SAIC flipped the newly purchase 4.8 million company to VeriSign, Inc. for $21 Billion within a year.


:dead:

Wasn't there a Nigerian dude that was also highly influential to the origins of the internet? I remember hearing about him sometime back but his name eludes me.

welcome to learning about how they keep you blackballed, and no wiggle room.
from really doing, the influential and most profitable work.
you were doing in the internet business.
when, you did nuffin to no one.
yet, they get to prey on you and victimize your earning potential and everything else.
all just because, you are not white.
plus, will not assimilate to their plan.

i lived what he did in a different way.
they blocked him from being able to profit, like me.
they knew and the industry has to many experts and brainiacs.
to let them have the excuse of timing and whatever else they wanna deflect on.

when i used to contact the nic to register domains in 1997-1999.
they were the company that used to handle the actual technological coding and engineering.
after you processed the order for the domain to the NiC.
they were speedy and a joy to work with at the NiC.
which means his company used to be on point, with how fast they executed registration.
to the point the NiC did not give you a hard time in setting up a domain name.
that is how thorough his company was.

Just read that his 3 partners wanted to sell instead of keeping it. Maybe that's why he had to sell it. It had been about 16 years they'd spent making that company-guess they didn't have it in them to go farther for another 2 years or maybe they set him up...

:yeshrug:

He mentioned other factors being at play too, so there's more to the story I think.
