Has everyone heard about this amazing new GD policy? Is it even true?
If this policy is really in full force and effect, I suspect (but hope not) it will also apply to Wild West. Seems like a major negative of using them and is really surprising they would impose it.
Some domainers at the forums have reg'd hundreds or even thousands of names there at special offer prices, mostly biz and us, so this is an incredibly significant negative for them.
What is everyone's opinion on this? Has anyone verified it to be so or is it a bad joke perhaps?

24. provisions specific to ONE-YEAR .BIZ, .INFO, AND .US registrations. If You are registering a .INFO or .BIZ or .US domain name and You elect to take advantage of special pricing applicable to one-year registrations, Go Daddy will automatically renew Your domain for an additional one-year period at the end of the first year term by taking payment from the Payment Method you have on file, unless You notify Go Daddy that You do not wish to renew. You will be notified and given the opportunity to accept or decline the one-year renewal prior to Your domain name expiration date. In the event You decide not to renew Your one-year .info or .biz or .us domain name for a second year, Your domain name registration will automatically revert back to Go Daddy and Go Daddy will gain full rights of registration to such domain name.
You agree that if You delete or Transfer Your .INFO or .BIZ or .US domain name during the first year, You will automatically be charged the second year renewal fees.
