Incompetent, lack of security, corrupt. Pity the fool who uses them.
(I am actually stuck with them, so pity me! Years ago a registrar I used ceased trading and ICANN transfered my domains from them to GoDaddy. I had a domain privacy thingy that GoDaddy also took on, it was passworded and they sent me a password. Because of the horror stories I had already heard I wanted to change registrar, to do so I had to cancel the privacy deal. I tried - password incorrect. I contacted GoDaddy's customer service department, they told me that they had "accidentally" sent me the wrong password, but for security reasons could not let me know what the correct password is. Every year they refuse to renew the domain unless I also renew the privacy, so I am locked in. Until I can guess what password they gave me, I cannot escape their service without loosing domains!)
