At MarkMonitor need to be updated soon — 35,000 domains

Registrant name will need to be updated following Serlin departs.

Regarding 35,000 domain names at MarkMonitor use the firm’s version of Whois Proxy. They are all registered in the name of Matt Serlin, DNStination Inc.

Names registered in this name belong to firms such as Facebook and Google.

The ownership records for these domain names will need to be updated soon.

Serlin recently posted on LinkedIn that he will be leaving MarkMonitor following 15 years with the firm.

I’ve always found it amusing that MarkMonitor uses an actual person’s names on its clients proxy registrations. Who will be the next lucky employee at MarkMonitor to be affiliated with 35,000 domains?
